43 yr old Irish male currently living in Liverpool UK
I enjoy meeting international travellers & those who appreciate cultural exchanges.
I own a 1989 Yamaha Virago XV1100 since 2012 & love to ride it but dont quite consider myself a full time biker, I also own & like cars but Im currently looking to sell my car & buy a Motorhome
I like to keep fit & live a reasonably healthy lifestyle which includes Martial Arts practice & Meditation & anything else thats along those lines & is fun :)
I like camping & outdoor pursuits but that usually just amounts to taking a walk & listening to bird song rather than doing anything exciting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'll be visiting Bulgaria in April 2018 for 3 weeks & at time of booking a lot of Hostels arent accepting bookings that far in advance so I thought Id check out Couch Surfing after meeting people in Barcelona in 2015 who recommended it to me & it seems like a cool thing to be a part of.

Music, Movies, and Books

I try to be well rounded in my tastes & avoid being a fashion victim, I tend to like quality over quantity & like to judge performing artists, authors & actors by their body of work not just individual works
I consider myself a good casual conversationalist & so long as we can have an engaging conversation on the topic then I like it.
My most recent reading material has been finance books, car motorbike & motorhome service & repair manuals & Im pretty deep into the complete Judge Dredd & Slaine series of graphic novels
I became disillusioned with pop culture & mainstream media around 2008 & since then there are world famous multi millionaire pop stars & actors Ive never seen or heard of but I still like South Park & sporting occasions.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I drew my first breath in 1974 & the world has been rejoicing ever since :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Im a jack of all trades & master of none but am a knowledgeable fan of both amateur & professional boxing & I also like MMA.
I have sports coaching experience so I get pretty technical about sports in general. Ive played soccer to a reasonable standard & coached it too so I do enjoy high quality games but probably get too nerdy about soccer for the casual fan to appreciate.
I consider soccer to be overly politicised & commercialised to be viewed regularly but I still love the game.
Clubs I like are Barcelona, Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Ajax, Celtic

What I Can Share with Hosts

Apart from the experience of meeting an Irishman who considers himself pretty cultured & worldly, I guess just the experience of meeting someone who enjoys travelling & meeting friendly, morally intelligent, progressive people from other cultures
