Resumen
Sobre mí
I am a fourth year medical student from Brown University in the United States, and I will graduate in 2018 to become a Doctor in Internal Medicine.
Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
This is the first time I will be traveling on my own and I'm looking to travel off the beaten path by meeting and learning from locals and sharing some great travel adventures and stories.
Intereses
I have a passion for travel, with my bike as the preferred mode of transportation. I also enjoy learning new sports and just completed my first triathlon. I consider myself adventurous when it comes to food. Rather than following recipes step-by-step, I experiment to add my own touch to each dish. I am also always open to trying new, bizarre foods, which have included live ants and durian (world’s smelliest fruit). I enjoy reading all genres, but The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien is my favorite book of all time.

Música, películas y libros
I have watched the Lord of the Rings trilogy more times than I can count and grew up dominating the Lord of the Rings Trivial Pursuit Board Game, though I am now a bit rusty since starting medical school. My other top movies include Gladiator, The Matrix, Django Unchained, and Up.
My favorite book is the Hobbit. I also love The Kite Runner, The Green Mile, Pride and Prejudice, and many others. I just finished reading the Disaster Artist, and am currently reading The Sympathizer, a story about a communist spy from the Vietnam War.
Algo increíble que he hecho
In 2014, I biked over 4,000 miles across the United States, from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic. Despite not having much biking experience and never owning a road bike before, I, along with two other companions, was able to complete this self-supported journey in 81 days.
Enseña, aprende, comparte
I took four years of Spanish in high school and college, but never had the opportunity to really practice it, so I'm looking forward to immersing myself in Spanish as I travel throughout Spain.
Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones
I'm really looking forward to sharing travel stories with my hosts, learning more about them and where they are from, and sharing my own adventure stories with them.
