Heyoo, I'm Ciarán, a 25 year old pasty lil Irish boy. I live life on the positive side and I don't take it too seriously. I get on with just about everyone and love seeing the bright side of things. I'm a positive optimist but I don't see the glass as half full or half empty. The glass is exactly as full as it needs to be. I just hope the glass has some alcohol in it. I did my bachelors in Communication and Media in the Netherlands (lived in Rotterdam, Groningen and the Hague). I especially love human communication and talking to people, it just makes me so happy. I've worked as a chef, bartender, retail cashier, adventure guide, delivery person, factory worker, English teacher and nude model. So I guess I'm a jack of a few trades, master of probably some. Music, movies and nature is my jam, but whose jam is it not, really. I live for meeting new people: sharing experiences, laughs and drinks. Especially the drinks🌝

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm here to discover and connect with the world and it's amazing people. I love the idea of couchsurfing and sharing and anything to do with sociality, I think the world is much better as a big community where we help each other!
