Travelling
Description
Hello there!
My name is Diarmaid and I'm a full-time traveler hailing from the bustling island of England. Over the past 7 months, I've been on a journey through various countries, immersing myself in diverse experiences and meaningful connections along the way.
I'm easy to please, with nature, hard work, and good conversations often being my most memorable moments while traveling. I'm a self-starter and will try to be self-sufficient (though I'm not afraid to ask for help when it's necessary).
Aside from this, I enjoy reading (usually psychology or philosophy), meditating, and can get competitive if sports are involved :) I also gain great satisfaction from contributing to meaningful and beautiful projects.
I'm an eager student, happy to learn any new skills that can contribute to fulfilling your vision. That being said, I have some skills of my own that I hope you will find useful(I have listed in the skills section).Interests

What else ...
To elaborate, I enjoy hiking and would really cherish a camping trip to any local spot. I like cooking and assisting in the process, although I'm not an amazing chef myself :( I enjoy a wide range of sports, from snooker to boxing to a morning run—I find moving my body essential. Additionally, I appreciate reading and discussing various topics with others, particularly over a coffee :)
