Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted and met up with a good few CS'ers!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Cycle touring in Australia was my first inadvertent experience of couch surfing. Every day rolling into a new town or village, we were surprised at how friendly and respectful the local people were to us. Getting talking to people in the supermarket and telling them about our trip, they ended up insisting that we stayed with them!We were weary at first, but after a few times we were actually purposefully seeking out people to befriend and see if we could crash in either their back garden in the tent, their caravan, their garage and yes..even their Couch! Really made the trip more fun and enjoyable.

Interests

I'm interested in a wide range of stuff from good cafés and restaurants, pubs/clubs to walking around the mountains. I enjoy new adventures and traveling and meeting new people with whom I can learn and benefit from a new perspective on life!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

That's a hard one.
I've seen sunsets that you just wanted to stop the clock to enjoy. Surviving a pretty epic climbing expedition in Nepal would be high up the list too!

Teach, Learn, Share

Photography, mostly outdoor landscapes.
I enjoy theatre, especially Irish playwrights.
I know all the mountain ranges in Ireland and can also find my way out of the toilet with the light off so i'm pretty sharp with the compass too.
Rock Climbing. Have all my own gear and most of the time i'm pretty safe. I live beside one of the best spots in the country for climbing too.
Seakayaking, get a different view of Dublin from its jagged and interesting coastline.
Moutainbiking/road cycling.
