ABOUT ME

I'm fairly easy-going and love to meet new people! Enjoy learning about new culture and listening to other people's travel stories! I'd like to think I'm very friendly and can talk to anyone! Probably natter too much but that's the Irish way!

PHILOSOPHY

Treat everyone how you would like them to treat you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Heard about this a while back and loved the concept but never had my own sofa to offer before...now I do!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

New to this so no experience but looking forward to many great couching surfing adventures.

Interests

I love anything to do with textiles, currently I am trying to learn everything I can about Japanese textiles! After that I am trying to see every aspect of Japanese life as well as everything else on this side of the planet! So far it's been great..I live at the bottom of mt fuji and waking to her beautiful site every morning is a real treat! Gotemba is a bit out of the way but it's close enough to Tokyo to allow me to enjoy regular weekend trips. Love Tokyo!
