About Me

CURRENT MISSION

growing older without growing up too much

ABOUT ME

well difficult to say...Often too brainy... but I think quite clever and funny.. clumpsy most of the times, shy but creative!! I enjoy witty conversation about life but enjoying being alone as well.
Idealist and proud of being so.

PHILOSOPHY

The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.
(h. miller)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I got to know couch surfing while a was living in Belfast with my ex flatmate Niamh. we host an American guy, Michael. It was fun and the idea behind this is amazing. it the way life should be :trust and share and discover cultural differences.

It's in line with my past experience as Erasmus student living with people from every corner of the world in a university residence and with my experience as VOLUNTEER for the European volunteer service. Both experience really opened my mind and eyes to the world!
