CURRENT MISSION

To see the world while having as much craic as possible along the way!

ABOUT ME

Hi my name's Fionntán (pronounced fintin). I'm a 24 year old Irish lad originally from Belfast/Donegal but lived in Dublin for 4 years. I worked as a video editor/cameraman in a media production company. I left my job to go traveling for a while and never looke backed. I spent a year in Asia before moving to Australia where I worked on a horse farm for a year and saved money. Now I'm spending that hard earned cash traveling in South America. I've been away from home for 2 1/2 years now but have assured my family that I'll be back in time for Christmas (2016!).
I'm interested in Sports, Politics, and (recently) travelling. I speak fluent English and Irish and have been taking Spanish lessons. I'd be happy to help people with their English if needed. I like to think I'm open, honest, friendly and a bit of craic!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worry, be happy!
