I love to travel and explore the world. I started a Global Health Club for my medical school (National University of Natural Medicine) in 2016. I like to learn from other cultures and the people I meet. If there is a way to give back (such as volunteering to teach nutrition education, health education, or give free medical exams) I do so while I am abroad.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am couchsurfing because I have a couple trusted, fellow-traveler friends who have had great experiences with it. They claim it is a great way to meet people, (locals, not just other tourists and those working in the service industries), while also saving money. When traveling, I like to live with the people, not as a tourist, in order to better learn about the culture in which I am immersing myself.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I would love to share my knowledge of nutrition, exercise, and medicine/healthcare. I love to cook and would love to share food and swap recipes. I would also love to share about my background in the US and my travels and adventures around the world. I would be willing to help with housework/chores or whatever else needs attended to while I am staying in my host's home.
