CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hey My name is (Peter) Eric and I was an English Teacher living in rural Japan but I recently came back home to Ireland so now I'm job searching, I'd love to meet up with people and hang out or explore Dublin or Kells. In the summer I love to go hiking and camping on the weekend so if you are interested in such things I'd love to hear from you. My main sport is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu so if you want to come and stay and train in my gym you are also very welcome.

PHILOSOPHY

The mind is a great servant but a horrible master

教，学，和分享

Well I can talk at length about certain parts of History, I'm very interested in Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union historically wise. Also the gulags and the armenian genocide are topics I take a keen interest in. I'm not sure exactly what my specific skills would be but I suppose I know a lot of random bits of information about a lot of different things, I love cycling and Hiking so I could take you on a Hike in the northern Japanese Alps as long as it isn't raining :) I can also teach you Ultimate Frisbee and other stuff etc etc. I am very interested in Health, fitness, DIet Mental health etc. and I love MMA
