Description
Hello! I am an Irishman currently travelling east across Asia.
I studied literature at university, and I spent the last few years working in international relations, humanitarian aid, and human rights. At the moment, I'm taking a break from work to travel for a while and see as much of the world as I can.
The things that make me happy: being in nature; meeting new people; anything creative; discovering new cities. I'm passionate about music also; I used to be a musician, and I'm still good for a few tunes on the guitar. I love art in general, and am always up to discuss music, film, literature, and so on.
I love working with my hands as well; I grew up working on family farms and I used to work in construction during my college years. I'm very interested in learning more about more sustainable methods of agriculture and land stewardship; the environment is a very important issue to me.
I hope that you will consider allowing me to be a part of your project, and I assure you that if you do you will find me a hardworking, trustworthy, respectful and easygoing workawayer. :)

I studied literature at university, in both the English and Irish languages. I also speak fluent French, having lived in France for around two years in total.
I spent a number of years working for the foreign ministry of my country, primarily in the fields of humanitarian aid and human rights. I'm happy to provide more details of this on request.
Most of my extended family are farmers and I spent much of my childhood involved in farm work, including shearing sheep every summer.
I also spent a number of months working in construction and landscaping, and I have spent years working in hospitality - restaurants, bars, etc. Finally, I have spent almost two years in total working in sales and customer service.
