About Me
Hello wonderful couch surfers,
You guys are amazing, after a few years of using this site you can't imagine how grateful I am to all you crazy guys willing to put yourself out there!
So Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile.
Here's a few phrases in Irish for you,
if you're looking for a place to stay, "Cead mile fáilte"- a thousand welcomes
If you have hosted me, "go raibh maith agat" - May goodness be upon you (thank you)
For all travellers:
Go n-éirí an bóthar leat
Go raibh an ghaoth go brách ag do chúl
Go lonraí an ghrian go te ar d'aghaidh
Go dtite an bháisteach go mín ar do pháirceanna
Agus go mbuailimid le chéile arís,
Go gcoinní Dia i mbos A láimhe thú.
May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.
ABOUT ME
I am from Derry, a city on the Irish border, there is a huge amount of history here going back thousands of years to the high kings of ireland. I love mythology and sharing stories and legends.
I live in dartmoor which is a beautiful natural park in England, with lots of history, rivers and old woods. It is perfect for every outdoor sport imaginable so come join me on my adventures!
I am a medical student studying in Plymouth, but am very open to other forms of healing like acupuncture, herbs and meditation.
I am neither a pianist nor a poet yet i still try because its enjoyable.
PHILOSOPHY
All we are, all that ever was or will be;
Is the expression of experience and the experience of expression.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Participation is the name of the game, you can't win if you don't play etc etc .. Try anything and everything and im always up for something out of the ordinary.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
First time in Mexico, the bus broke down and I couldnt find a hotel or hostel and in desparation I turned to couch surfing, found a warm welcome, warm bed and a bowl of fruitloops in the morning.
Couch surfing is pretty cool
