CURRENT MISSION

Trying my best to see the world and enjoy life's journey, with all the places, people and stories waiting to be met out there.

ABOUT ME

I consider myself pretty easy going and am always up for an adventure. I enjoy being outside, and when traveling, tend to get into the scenery of new and exciting places. It's always a highlight to meet people from all over so one day I can visit them =P. Currently an anesthesiology resident in Burlington, VT. I have a strong interest in global health.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy the journey.

Pursue the things which make your heart spark to life. At the end of the day, you will be pleased with all the choices that led to new and exciting things, and you'll regret the things you didn't do most. We've only got one life, let's be everything we are called to be and do everything we are meant to do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Both a host and a surfer! It's a great way to meet new people from around the globe. Lots of local advice too!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed a couple of times and it's been great. I've learned how to cook a real latino dish in Colombia, and gotten the real low-down on where to go and see in Malta. Looking forward to more stories in the future!

Interests

Making music, learning about anything, good discussion, travel, hearing somebody else's story, lots of other things!

• cooking
• traveling
• socializing
• music
• medicine

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: My tastes are really all over, anything from Mozart to Coldplay to that music you hear in the elevator.

Movies: I'm a sucker for war movies (Braveheart and Saving Private Ryan have got to be the best movies), most drama, some romcoms; just about everything except horror (sorry, I'm sensitive!).

Books: Mostly non fiction- Biographies, historical pieces, etc. Although I'm currently reading Stephen King's Dark Tower series and it's pretty awesome.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Finished medical school in one piece =P. OK no...but really.

Hopefully some good conversation and some travel stories :)
