    Hello! My name is Niamh, I'm nineteen years old, and after spending the past four months in New Zealand I’m hoping to do a little more exploring before heading off to university in September! Prior to travelling New Zealand, I was at home in Dublin working at a cafe for four months. Before that I was at school in Scotland. I have also lived in Jerusalem and London.

    I'm a big fan of the outdoors. I took part in the British Duke of Edinburgh Program which, among other things, involved a four day expedition around Ben Nevis in the Scottish Highlands. It was great fun being off the grid with a small group of friends, navigating dodgy paths and pitching our tents on windswept slopes. I have also completed the 'Coast to Coast' walk across the north of England with my father.

    When I lived in Jerusalem, I rode horses weekly. I took part in a number of showjumping competitions in Palestine with my riding club and did a number of hacks with friends in northern Israel. Last summer, I did volunteer work at a stables in Ireland.

    Swimming in the outdoors is another favourite activity, from freezing Scottish lochs to the equally baltic waters of the Gulf of Finland. I had lots of fun swimming in New Zealand too!

  • Was könntest du arbeiten?

    As mentioned, I worked in a cafe/bakery for four months, learning how to become a barista and developing my front-of-house skills with our loyal South Dublin clientele. I am a hard and conscientious worker, as ready to sweep the floor at the end of the day as I am to attempt a pretty design on the head of a latte.

    Whilst in New Zealand, I had two volunteer experiences, one on a small lifestyle farm where I was largely indepently carrying out a range of tasks related to either animal welfare or tending to the garden. I also spent two weeks at a retreat centre where I was largely spent my time in housekeeping, overall cleaning while also assisting with the preparation of food and subsequent cleaning. I even got a few shifts in the veggie garden which was great fun!

    I’ve had a number of experiences away from home, which meant I learned to be independent, and deal with new challenges myself.

    My favourite subjects were English and History, but I also enjoyed Maths and Physics as well. At university, I plan to study International Relations. In Jerusalem, I learned Arabic, and still like to try it out when I meet people from Arabic-speaking countries!

    I am an intermediate level horse rider, having taken part in a couple of junior competitions in the West Bank. I also helped take some of the lessons for the beginner riders at my stables in Jerusalem.

  • Was noch ...

    I really like reading - some of my favourite books include 'The Wrath and the Dawn' by Renée Ahdieh and 'The Great Gatsby' by F. Scott. Fitzgerald.

    Board games are a staple in my family. My current favourite board game is Setlers of Catan; my family and I have also recently started playing poker which to my surprise is great fun :D

    I'm also very happy completing puzzles on a rainy day with a nice cup of tea by my side!

    I also love crocheting and am currently working on a large blanket. I am big into origami as well– the family home is full of literally hundreds of pieces of carefully folded paper!
