One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Between 2014 and 2017, I spent 3 years living as a nomad visiting 6 continents and over 30 countries. From working as part of an Anti Poaching team protecting rhinos in South Africa to the pyramids of Egypt. From the green rolling hills of Ireland, to the hot sandy beaches of Greece. From the bottom of the grand Canyon to the artic ocean of Alaska's north shores, through the hectic cities of Asia to the beauty of Halong bay and the wonders of Machu Pichu up to the equator line in Ecuardor, I have seen a lot and learnt a lot over the last 3 years.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am now looking after my brothers unit while he is away working in Iraq, I have one free bedroom and bathroom to offer, the unit also has a pool and BBQ area, close to the river and pubs. 10 minutes to the city and not far from a bus stop. Safe area and lots to do.
