I'm a graduate zoologist leaving my ultimate Frisbee career behind in Ireland to kick-start a career in wildlife conservation.
At the end of January 2016 I begin work on an orangutan research project in Borneo.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling is about more than seeing places, it's about experiencing them and the people and cultures that make them. What better way than by spending some time with a local.

Interests

I'm into ultimate Frisbee, football, cycling, nature, wildlife, and this travelling lark ain't too bad either.
