26 year old perpetual student studying medicine currently. I learned to love travel when I was young - my mom worked for an airline back in the golden days when retirement packages were a thing, so when she had me and my siblings, she retired. We were lucky enough to have multiple years of free flights on planes where space was available, and we totally took full advantage of that with tons of spontaneous, poorly planned adventures. That benefit ended, but my desire to see new places and learn new things did not.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To interact with new people, new ideas, new places. I'm always looking for a new adventure when I find free time.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: The National, Chvrches, Cherub, Sylvan Esso, Cold War Kids, Phantogram, Trampled by Turtles, Decembrists, etc.

Movies: Arrival, Children of Men, anything Wes Anderson, Big Hero 6, What We Do in the Shadows, etc.

Books: Harry Potter (duh), Freakanomics, Ready Player One, Orphan Master's Son, etc.?

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm pretty liberal but always open to conversation - social justice issues and politics; if you want to hear, I have a lot of opinions on health care policy. Too much. (Actually, maybe just don't ask.)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Openness to conversation, open-mindedness to try anything new. Down to hang out. Clean, respectful.
