Hello there! My name is Brent H, and I am a recent graduate from uni in the United States. Right now I am stationed in WV attending medical school and am excitedly on that 4 year journey! Some of my passions include: hiking, learning languages, cooking, sport, cultivating new friendships, and being a friend to those who may need it. I hope that if we are to share each other spaces we can both learn from each other and also genuinely enjoy each others' company!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

to explore more of the incredibly diverse land we live in and learn from the people around me

Interests

I'm very thankful for the opportunities that I have had to travel this world. The experiences I have had in these different places are what have shaped me to be the person I am today. It has grown my love for the arts (especially music and architecture), has increased my interest in all sorts of cuisine, and has most of all made me want to deepen my connections with people who are not exactly like me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've had the amazing opportunity to work with transplant surgery at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, USA as well as travel to Monterrey, Mexico, to provide physical examinations to under-resourced children. Physical and mental wellness is something that I am passionate about, and these two things are something I am so glad I got to do.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would hope that I can share with you a love for the arts and languages as well as some great stories from my growing up! I also would be more than happy to assist any host with chores, tidying, or simple errands to further make myself of use!
