About Me

So in a nutshell I'm a nerdy, animal loving, sporty, gym loving, stubborn, vegan,
bookworm who loves all things fantastical, quotable, adorable and sometimes downright confusing.
I'm pretty easy going. Don't mind just going with the flow and seeing where it takes you.
Want to fill my mind with as much knowledge as possible and it's always said that travelling is a great teacher.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel and see the world. Experience different cultures and ways of living. I don't want to be a tourist somewhere; I want to really live and experience the destinations I end up in.

I hope to set off on an open ended traveling mission during this year and though this would be perfect. Staying with somebody who knows the area is an amazing way to really experience the place.

Maybe I'll fall in love with a destination and never look back; maybe I'll come back home in a few years with a new found love for my own country. Either way I am open to wherever the next few years & hundreds of miles will take me.

Interests

I'm a fully fledged bookworm who will swoon at the sight of a huge library! :)
Also love sports; not so much watching them as playing them.
Currently learning to play the guitar; early stages as of now.
Tattoos - If I had the money my body would be a canvas of pictures by this stage. I love tattoos. One thing I've promised myself is that for every country I stay in, I'll get a tattoo that represents my time there. A permanent memory of my travels & experiences.
Slightly obsessed with coffee; thankfully I'm a barista so it works out magically ☕️😊

And sometimes I just like the small simple things; hanging out with friends, going to the forest with my dog, etc. Things often taken for granted.

Music, Movies, and Books

As mentioned in a crazy bookworm. When I own my own home the biggest room is going to be the library. Mainly filled with fantasy books such as Patrick Rothfuss, Trudi Canavan, Scott Lynch, Rachel Maron and the like.
Also some classics Jane Austen, Leo Tolstoy etc.
And probably a bit of crime like Larsson, Dan Brown.
Plus the odd romance, The Fault in Our Stars, The Time Travellers Wife and such.
Favourite books are The Outsiders by S E Hinton. The Name of the Wind by Pathrick Rothfuss. The favourites change every so often. 😊

Music and movies tend to depend on my mood.

One of my favourite things to do is listen to discover on Spotify. Gets me listening to artist I wouldn't have found otherwise. Or shows like greys anatomy and the vampire diaries have great soundtracks.

Teach, Learn, Share

So I'm bad at this part. Not sure what wisdom I can impart with others.
I love to cook and bake so I can share and teach that. Also can help you with English and Gaeilge.

I'm good at sports and activities so if you're looking for a sports buddy or adventurist I'm your girl.

Also for any fellow coffee enthusiasts I'm pretty good with the latte art so I can always help with that ☕️☕️☕️
And if you're looking for company whilst exploring some good cafes I'm definitely up for that. 😊

What I Can Share with Hosts

My love of literature.
My sarcastic witty sense of humour. ;)

Most importantly my baking/cooking skills. :D
Christmas cake, carrot cake, cheesecake, stir fries and pancakes are my specialties. :)
