About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Epic whirlwind trip of Europe for my last summer before settling into my profession

ABOUT ME

I have almost never moved in my life, so I have always been itching to travel. Once I started, I couldn't get enough of it! I truly believe that one of life's goals should be to see as much of this beautiful and wondrous world as one can. The experience of driving, or flying, or even taking a ferry to another place completely changes our perspective on how much life has to offer.
I'm on a lifelong journey of learning and will one day become a doctor of medicine. It's a busy life, but to balance work, I take whatever time and funds I can get to travel!
I'm not a crazy partier, but I have fun and love adventure. I really want to experience the culture, arts, and landscapes of your city. If that includes a trip to the pub, that's fine in my books!

PHILOSOPHY

My motto is that I am 100% me. But I think it takes a lot of time and introspection to discover who you really are. I've learned a lot about myself in the last few years, often while travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm planning to backpack in Europe for the first time this summer. I'll be on my own for a bit, then meeting up with a friend for a while longer. I'm trying to keep myself on a budget, but it's so difficult with all the exciting things to do on that continent! I'm hoping that with couchsurfing, I will meet new friends along the way to share travel stories with and I promise to treat your place as I would my own cozy home!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet, but I hope to meet you soon!

Interests

Tell me anything and I could generate some interest for it. I am really open to learning and trying new things. I can tell you a few things I'm not interested in: politics and economics... they just don't fly in my brain for some reason.

Music, Movies, and Books

Lord of the Rings trilogy, everything about those movies was breathtaking. I have a very eclectic taste in music. I wish I had more time to dedicate to reading... I've tried to get through many classics, but these days I pretty much read fluff that makes me laugh!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I drove down the West Coast of the United States last summer with some girlfriends. It was a wild adventure full of lots of fantastic fun moments. There was one special moment for me though, where I went around a huge beach boulder and felt completely isolated from humanity by this rock and the Pacific ocean. The powerful wind, strong tide washing in, and being completely surrounded by nature. Something I will never forget.
