About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find the sock monster who lives in the back of every washing machine!

ABOUT ME

I'm 32, non-smoker from a family of 5 of the Dublin Suburbs. Work in IT Recruitment and own my own business for 2 years now. Love to visit new places and wander off the normal routes slightly. Enjoy cycling & Rugby Union. Tend to be lively & very chatty and really enjoy other peoples jokes & stories.

PHILOSOPHY

Live it, love it! I need my wants and do not want my needs! Be kind and have fun etc. etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live about an hour from Dublin City Centre near Blessington which is in the 'Garden of Ireland'. I rent a cottage on acres of land which has a water skiing lake and is surrounded by idealistic countryside. The village is small but friendly and theres a bus route to city centre (€2) takes about an hour.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None as yet but think the idea is great... bring it on!

Teach, Learn, Share
