My name is Brendan Tinnelly, I’m a 21 year old Irishman. I spent most of my formative years in the northside of Dublin City, and am all the better for it. I’ve recently finished a course in Languages for International Communications (Japanese) at Dublin City University, and am about to embark on a year or so of teaching English to Japanese high-school students in Okayama.
