CURRENT MISSION

To explore as much as I can before residency!! and drink as much coffee as possible

ABOUT ME

i live in a world of possibilities.
I have an insatiable desire to explore the world.
I am laid back, outgoing, and love to laugh.

Tangible Things in life that can guarantee my happiness:
- coffee
- rice crispie treats
- peanut butter & jelly sandwiches

I am currently trying to figure out a way to combine the following interests : medicine/critical care, preventative health care/environmental medicine, international work... while trying to have free time.

PHILOSOPHY

"with great power comes great responsibility" - spiderman

I also believe that everyone has the responsibility to live one's life as they choose to live it. I try my hardest not to judge.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just finished medical school and trying to travel as much as I can before I start working crazy hours. I just returned from a trip to Africa. I absolutely loved it there. When I finally have a couch/bed of my own, I will host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

To date, I have couch surfed in Toronto- in which I believe I may have been tremendously spoiled because Canadians are such kind and caring individuals as a whole. My first couch surf was actually my host's first couch surf and I think we both learned a lot and ended up having a really great experience. Thanks John!.. the next couch surf was with a veteran CouchSurfer and this experience was nice to see the other end of the spectrum. These stays reinforced my desire to participate in couchsurfing.

Interests

I love to read, stay active, and try new things. Other interests: languages, Art, Music, Medicine, Social Justice, Labor Rights, International Health Care, meeting new people, being creative...Pretty much anything can pique my interest.

I like libraries a lot and I love Norman Rockwell.
