Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I want to show people what this part of the country has to offer, come stay with me for free and I'll show you stunning local scenery, mountains, lakes and loughs. I'll take you to the best local pubs and eat the freshest local produce. My friends are always up for a party in Belfast or Dublin so we can always get a taste of the night life of Ireland.
ABOUT ME
Open minded, outgoing, friendly, enthusiastic. I love meeting new people and creating strong bonds with them. I am a non-judgmental person. I can be quite impulsive sometimes and like to play things by ear.
PHILOSOPHY
I can't get the idea of the sheer expanse of space out of my head. Humans and earth are a great little thing that has happened in it, I'm just making the most of this "life" I find myself with.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Began traveling.
Teach, Learn, Share
I want to help others feel part of a geographically-dispersed but philosophically connected subculture of the new age travelers. I have met countless numbers of people from the other side of the earth with the same exact beliefs, ambitions and struggles as myself. If there is only one thing that connects us it is the knowledge that when you travel, you are constantly outside most people's "comfort zones"; pardon the cliche but this is where the magic happens!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Local knowledge,
access to cheap local activities, e.g. hiking, pier jumping, lake swimming, kayaking, Stand Up Paddle Boarding, horse riding, locally grown vegetables and fresh fish. I can also cater for vegans and vegetarians, I used to be one.
I can also share with you the wit, humour and "craic" of irish people; I have friends living in Belfast, Newry and Dublin who we can visit and party with!
