About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a nurse turned medical student, but I have a range of hobbies: standby interests include snowboarding, rock climbing, pool, painting, and playing the guitar at a very average level.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can meet-up for drinks or activities in DC, and I hope to be able to host again in the future!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First couch surfing experience was at a house in Wanaka, NZ, stuffed overfull with a collection of people from all over Europe and North America. Group dinners every night and hearing about Christmas celebrations in the Netherlands made it a fantastic experience and sold me on the idea of getting more involved. I also had a great experience couch surfing in Calgary and met a ton of awesome people there.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-The twist on the steps of the Sacre Couer to the sounds of a pure francophone playing "Twist and Shout". We were heartily applauded afterwards.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach the basics of salsa dance, how to sew, physiology and pathology, gymnastics, how to make a pizza from scratch, and probably a dozen other random things I can't think of at the moment.
