Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I like mostly American 70's music like Funk, Disco and Motown. I also like Soul, Pop, some Rap, Salsa, Reggae and some Classical. I like most music really!

Movies: I'm not much of a movie person so Sound of Music.

Books: My favourites are Orlando by Virginia Woolf and the Harry Potter series

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you lots about Irish culture: Language, dance, fairy tales, music, cooking.
I can play guitar too if you have one I can teach you or we can play together!
If you look at my interests there's probably something in there that I can teach you.

Theres still so much that I want to learn: I love to learn new kinds of dances, to try interesting foods like insects!, I certainly need to learn more languages if anyone wants to help me? I would also love how to grow my own food, how to play card games, and anything you have a particular knowledge in I will probably find interesting.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can tell you things about where I'm from and places I've been.

I can cook quite well so I don't mind cooking for you, and I can make cocktails if that's something you're interested in.
