Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I used Couchsurfing in Tanzania, and had a wonderful experience! I really enjoyed meeting people while I traveled, and seeing neighborhoods I wouldn't have thought to explore.
Music, Movies, and Books
My favorite books include mostly non-fiction, such as medical anthropology, sociology, social history of anything, medicine, physical anthropology, etc. I love Oliver Sacks, Atul Gawande, etc.

My Interests
I am interested in almost anything outdoors, including hiking, skiing, cycling, camping, backpacking, and swimming. Also, anything to do with healthcare--I'm a nurse myself, and have worked in global health, critical care, and nursing education. Cooking is one of my favorite hobbies, and love to have dinner parties.
