Irish 27 year old, travelling the world to pursue my passion for adventure and self exploration.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

1. To meet beautiful souls.
2. To travel on a deeper level.
3. To gain a greater understanding of a place and leave said place with a new friend.
4. To receive hospitality and someday give back.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I drove 15,000 miles from the west coast to the east coast of USA and Canada with 3 friends for 6 weeks. We visited over 20 National Parks including Yosemite, Yellowstone, Glacier, Banff, Zion, Arches and Death Valley. We cooked dinner on a roaring camp fire and we slept under the stars on mountain tops, in woodland and in desert...a magical experience!
