I'm a medical student who loves to travel! I hope to eventually work as a surgeon for an international relief organization so that I can help out while I see the world :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I have to pay for my medical education in the states, I have to travel frugally especially when volunteering abroad. I also love to meet locals and experience my destination as a resident more than a backpacker just passing through.
I live very close to the Pacific Ocean in Southern California and I love having guests stay with me when I am here myself. It's a great way to meet travelers that inspire my future trips.
