Resident Physician by day and Sound Sleeper by night | SF Transplant and Chicago Native | Science Nerd and Music Enthusiast | f-pawn Sacrificer and Cinematic Explorer | Outdoor Runner and Human Photographer | Wine Sipper and Beer Gulper -- Hi! My name is Rob. I'm from California, and I'm currently in Durham for my medical training. The resident life is keeping me busy, but I try to travel when I can - there's so much out there I still need to see, and the clock's ticking. I'm a pretty down to earth person, and I approach everything with an open mind. I thrive on human interaction, and I love to meet new people and am genuinely interested in listening to the unique life stories they have to share.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Summer before I started medical school, I went on a two week roadtrip and drove the entire perimeter of Iceland. I had such a blast. And I had the amazing opportunity to fly a drone there: https://vimeo.com/173582665
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: Photography. I'll normally bring my camera around wherever I travel. Learn: I want to learn more about you and everything that has made you into the person you are today. Share: A meaningful conversation and fun times over some drinks/coffee and/or food.
