The name’s Victoria but I usually go for Vic. I've been working with occupational medicine for about a year now, ever since my graduation, basically. I like to say that I work to pay for my travels.
I'm also an artist as well, as I found comfort in hand embroidery during the last years of my medical degree.
I enjoy quietness and just sitting at a park bench to watch life happen around me.
I enjoy seeing and hearing people stories, just as if I’m reading a book or watching a movie.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had some experiences with the traditional way of traveling and I believe the time has come for me to start solo traveling and get a real immersion on all sorts of people’s culture while exploring the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movie is Inglourious Basterds
I love going to the cinema, specially in different cities
My favorite band is AJR currently, but it changes with my mood
I'm a child of the 2000's emo bands culture, so yeah, a lot of that too on my spotify
My favorite author is Junji Ito, but his mangas are basically the only mangas I read
I'm also a big Neil Gaiman fan, ever since Coraline (fun fact: I have a Coraline with the button eyes sewed tattoed on my arm), but I'll admit I couldn't finish reading Sandman yet
Harry Potter nerd ever since I can remember

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I survived medical school
I hand embroider lifelike animals and cartoon characters
