ABOUT ME

A Backpacker CV

Nationality: Irish / Australian (but don't hold that against me)

Languages: English (mind you, with my accent, some Aussie’s do think I am speaking another language and NO, I won’t say "Potatoes" or "top o' the mornin to ya" on request. I’m Irish, not a Leprechaun

Previously Resided in: G G G....Galway, Ireland (If you understand what this means, you mush be Irish)

Current Residential Status: I've got a bed! And my own room!! Woohoo!!!

Current Laundry status: 90% Clean and wearable! It€'s nice to appreciate the simple things in life.

The back-story: Work as a Researcher (working in ANU at the moment), been travelling solo since September, seeing and doing as much as possible. Plan is to hang around Oz for a while.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is one massive opportunity; you got to capitalise on it! Problems only exist if you view them as such. Fill your life with people and experiences; leave no room for stress!
