CURRENT MISSION

Unite Planet Earth! If life is not an adventure, it is not worth living.

ABOUT ME

I'm unique, same as everyone else! You probably think I'm too old for all this but travel is one of life's great educators. I enjoy doing it, I enjoy encouraging it.
IMPORTANT.....I can't always check my couchsurfing requests daily so the more notice you give me the better chance you have of being hosted!

PHILOSOPHY

"We're only passing through this life, you don't get another shot, so make the most of it while you're here!" I don't want to be sitting on my cloud thinking "I wish I had visited......"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to show off my beautiful, historic city/island. I also love Starbucks, hot summer evenings and good company. In my town or in yours - you choose!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I wouldn't even know where to start. I'll be happy to tell you when we meet.

Interests

I have recently published my first novel on Amazon called The Goddess, the Dragon and the Traveller. It is a fantasy, mythology story about the prehistory of Ireland. It explores the origins of leprechauns, fairies and other fantastical creatures. If you have visited the town or are about to, the story is centred on the Foyle Valley area which is where Londonderry is situated.

Music, Movies, and Books

Far too many to mention - music, anything from the 50's through to the 00's!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed to the top of the Sears Tower in Chicago when it was the tallest building in the world!

Teach, Learn, Share

Ireland and especially Londonderry where I was born is steeped in history and legend. I love sharing it. I also love hearing about other's countries. Giving and receiving knowledge, love, fun, enjoyment, is a true gift.
