  • Description

    Hello fellow beings

    I am a well travelled Environmentalist, Science and Maths teacher, Naturopathic Nutritionist, Yoga Instructor and Ayurvedic, Thai, Abdominal Masseuse wanting to create more magical experiences.

    I grew up on a farm in the South of Ireland. At the age of 16 I started working in different restaurants, bars and nightclubs. I then went on to study Chemical and Environmental Science at university before leaving to go teach English in the Middle East. I spend three fabulous years teaching and travelling. Then I decided to move to Australia and worked for a number of corporate businesses before ending up on a stud farm, looking after race horses. I returned to Ireland and started studying Naturopathic Medicine; healing people through nutrition. While completing this diploma I also studied to become a Chemistry teacher. I taught Science in a secondary school in London for 2 years before leaving to travel South America.

    I spent 13 months volunteering in South America. Due to the pandemic I came back to Ireland in September and secured a job teaching Chemistry, Maths and Physics at a private school in the South of Spain.

    I left my job at Christmas and travelled to India for the fourth time. In India I completed my second month Yoga TTC, studied Ayurvedic Medicine and Panchakarma Therapy and participated in a Buddhism course. Not long after this I flew to Nepal to do some trekking before returning back to Ireland. I returned to India in September to finish my Ayurvedic studies before moving to Thailand to study both Traditional Thai and Abdominal/Chi Neng Sang

    My dream is to one day buy my own plot of land, to grow my own food, tend to my many animals and organise retreats. I am a fit, hard-working individual who lives a very minimalistic life and would love to become more self sustainable.
