Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in Mayfield, about 2km from the bus and train station in Cork with 5 humans and a cat. If you don't mind sharing a place with all of us and I'm free to host I might be able to offer you a place, I really can't fit more than one though. Like all other CS hosts, I give preference to people who write personalised messages.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It´s all been good. I´ve got to go to places I otherwise might not have been able to afford and met peòple whose lives would never have intersected with mine.
The project has increased my faith in humanity so much.

Interests

Travel, Cycling really slowly in front of SUVs

Teach, Learn, Share

Travel while you can... it won´t always be so cheap.
Travel lightly on the earth, fly as little as possible and offset your carbon emissions.
Be generous and patient with people in poorer countries, however hard that can be.
