I'm an Irishman living in San Francisco, working as a cancer biologist in a university there. On the side, I moonlight as a ultrarunner travelling the world racing up and down mountains. I'm passionate about the power of community, and a lover of storytelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of the best parts of travelling is meeting and learning from the locals. I feel couch surfing will be a great way to see a new place from a local's point of view!
