CURRENT MISSION

To make it through vet school alive

ABOUT ME

I'm a goofball that wears many hats.

Right now I'm in vet med school, so that consumes any free time I would otherwise have. It's such a wonderful experience that I've decided to throw myself into learning as much I can these next 4 years so I can become an amazing veterinarian. Unfortunately this means putting aside my vagabond adventurer for now. So instead of getting to know all of you amazing people, I will be getting to know dogs, cats, horses, sheep, goats, llamas, chickens, and every other animal that people own.

PHILOSOPHY

You don't know what you don't know. (my sociology professor)

A field that has rested gives a bountiful crop. (Ovid)

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just doing it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It all started with a pot luck that I hosted at my college apartment in the fall of 2009.

兴趣

Riding my bike. Riding my tandem bike. Thinking about riding bikes. Looking at bikes online. I like bikes.

I also enjoy cooking things and eating things that are delicious. Sometimes it's vegetarian or vegan, sometimes it has bacon and butter. I go both ways.

I also love jigsaw puzzles. I almost always have one on my kitchen table. It helps me get my brain going in the morning and there's something satisfying about putting the pieces together. That being said, I also appreciate good beer and conversation at a pub or bar, but the older I get, the less I like "partying" and the more I like game nights with plenty o' booze at someone's house.
