Heya, I'm a 19-year-old physics student living in Tipperary, Ireland. My house is pretty rural, but the door is always open!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A few years ago I really began to like the German language and decided to learn it in my spare time - after learning the basics in school I bought the first Harry Potter book in German and a massive dictionary, then dove right in! This summer I decided I would finally put my work into practice and visit Germany to speak it authentically, and experience some of the culture that goes with the language.

Interests

I really enjoy science, but in my free time I like to play guitar, videogames, and learn about things I have an interest in, such as economics, computer algorithms, psychology and music theory.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I have an embarrassing fondness for lo-fi, badly sung songs with weird lyrics, which means I never get the aux cord at parties! I also enjoy jamming along to classics like Hendrix, Neutral Milk Hotel, Bob Dylan.

Movies/TV Shows:
2001, Inception, Mad Men, Bojack Horseman

Books:
Needful Things, A Short History of Everything, a little Kafka/Dostoyevsky, Robert Frost

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once ran a 10km mini-marathon at 4am and promptly threw up at the finish line.
