27 year old medical student. I enjoy traveling, cooking/baking, and climbing. I am very firmly a dog person. Mountains and water inspire me.

I'm very busy during school, but I'd still like to host sometimes since CSers bring half the fun of travel to my living room!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because seeing a city through the eyes of people who live there is the best way to understand it, and because when I can't travel, hosting brings a lot of the fun of travel to my living room!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Worked in an ER for 2.5 years.
Traveled solo for 5 months (and then again for 1.5 more months) - too many moments to name from these trips

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some random cooking, including good ol' made-from-scratch apple pie, and I have tons of crazy ER (A&E) stories to share. I'd love to learn a little of any language you speak, and listen to you talk about whatever you're most passionate about!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Delicious cooking, strange ER stories, general enthusiasm, interest in listening/learning.
