I am a senior at VCU that is interested in new experiences when my nose is not deeply embedded into nursing & pathophysiology textbooks! I am passionate about the outdoors and being mindful. I participate in some form of yoga/meditation daily and hope to bring a more eastern practice of medicine to the Western world when I complete my degree. As a youngster I traveled along the east coast of the US, but there is so much of the world to see, and I plan to adventure as much as possible in the years to come.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am joining Couchsurfing for the same reasons as most; I am seeking new experiences on a budget with the intent on meeting kind people along the way!

Interests

I enjoy snowboarding, wakeskating, running- from trails to the road, yoga, meditation, reading, tromping around in the outdoors, mtn biking and climbing; anything to get epinephrine flowing!
