About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hi Couchies!! I wanna get out of Ireland for a few days over Christmas. I would love to try snowboarding somewhere in Europe. If I find a host then I promise I will get some lessons previous to going! I am friendly and adventurous..

ABOUT ME

I am a fun and outgoing person. I have recently traveled to Tanzania and it has given me a thirst for meeting people from other cultures. This is the best education one can get!I love all kinds of outdoor activities and I would like to think I am a free spirit wanting to connect with the world. I am interested in meeting people that I can have deep and meaningful conversations with, or just a giggle, as laughing is so important.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that we are all here for a reason and that we are all powerful beyond our own beliefs. I want to make a positive mark on the world and have as much fun and gain as much awareness as I can while I'm here.
everything happens for a reason and we are ALL connected!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love romcoms I will admit, but I also like historical movies..the Great Debater moved me. I usually read spiritual books or real life stories about people overcoming obstacles in their lives. I liketo be uplifted and inspired, so I try and not expose myself to anything too traumatic. I am also however a realist and do like to be involved in various campaigns.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling to Tanzania and jumping off a 20 ft cliff recently into the sea. I was so frightened, but I just let go, it was amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

Give people the right to be wrong. We are all on this big rock together, lets be nice to each other.
