Due to circumstances that I shall not dwell on here I restarted my life in 2006. I ended up attending University Collage Cork studying English Literary Criticism and Italian. I graduated with dual honours (2.1) last October. I am working on bringing my Italian to full fluency. I have spent a lot of time living and studying there - Padua - but while I can read and speak fairly well, I am simply not fluent enough for the purposes of employment in fields the like of tech support, teaching and tourism. I can teach English, I have done so at junior level thus I am looking for a good 50/50 language exchange.
