Description

Hi! I am Ferdia and I am 19 years old. I am a very curious person who is always looking to meet new people, learn new languages and gain experience in areas I'm unfamiliar with -- these things are what motivate me. I live a very balanced life filled with friends, family, exercise and academics which brings me great joy. Despite being satisfied, I have always wanted to experience life outside the city, and connect with land and nature in a way that I have not been able to do in Dublin.
