Hi! I'm an easygoing Canadian med student, looking forward to exploring some new corners in Europe. I grew up in a big family (I've had to be easygoing haha) and my parents have passed on their love of travel and open mindedness to my siblings and me. I'm an extrovert (almost to a fault) but sometimes just hanging out in the same room as someone else while we each do our own thing is the most relaxing thing to do.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

One of my favourite things about traveling is meeting new people and my favourite way to travel is experiencing a place by living there. Sadly, I don't have the time to actually spend weeks in every place but I'm hoping couchsurfing will help me see new cities through the eyes of locals and let me meet new people along the way! I'm really excited about the concept of couchsurfing and being able to share life and culture with hosts.

Interesses

I enjoy discussions on anything from new cancer treatments, to world politics, to Kanye covers, to how we see the world. I like good questions and thinking out loud.
I love team sports - playing or watching. Teach me the finer points of rugby and I can do my best to brief you on hockey (ice hockey..)!
Healthcare is another big interest of mine, especially topics pertaining to global health.
I tend to be enthusiastic about good chocolate, wine, and coffee.

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

Music: I'm honestly so easygoing. Country, indie, chill pop, hip hop, modern rock.

Movies: I like smart criminals (think Italian Job), long heartfelt stories (as in Pursuit of Happyness, Benjamin Button), and will always be down for James Bond.

Books (actually, lets go with authors): Khalid Hosseni, Jane Austen, F. Scott. Fitzgerald, Haruki Murikami - I'm actually looking forward to reading novels instead of textbooks this summer. Any suggestions would be welcome!

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Watching the Northern Lights from my parents driveway with my brother and sister at Christmas.
Joining an improptu dance party in Gitega, Burundi.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I love to cook with friends (old and new) and would love to share some of my favourite recipes from home.
I would love to be better at guitar or volleyball.
I have two years of medical knowledge from med school and can share about how the Canadian medical system works. I'm really interested in learning about how other country's systems work.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

A number of humourous stories, Canadian lingo, some medical knowledge, tasty food, and easygoing company.
