“We travel, some of us forever, to seek other places, other lives, other souls.”

I just finished medical school. I begin my training in Pediatrics in June so I'm trying to get as much travelling in as I can before I get no more vacation time. hahah

I was born in Canada to two immigrant parents (my mom is Polish, my dad is Iranian) and we speak French at home. With my medical school I've had the opportunity to live in the UK, Grenada, and the US. I'm overall the type of person who feels like both nowhere & everywhere is home to me.

Oh, and I love animals. I have an adorable bunny at home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling, but my favourite part of travelling is learning about the people and experiencing culture in various places.

Interests

The whole world interests me, from micro to macro. I'm a scientist and a dreamer.
