. I'm a medical doctor with experience in both clinical medicine and public health, including several missions with Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) across different countries. Although I no longer work with MSF, those experiences deeply shaped my worldview and strengthened my love for connecting with people from diverse cultures.

I've recently moved to Europe and currently live in Verona, a beautiful city in northeastern Italy. At the moment, I’m focused on getting my medical degree recognized here while embracing this exciting new chapter of life.

Having lived in different cultural contexts and learned several languages over the past 10 years, I’ve collected many interesting stories. One of my favorites is how I discovered a passion for swimming—something I only learned at 39! 😂 I’ve also taken up yoga, which has become an important part of my routine.

I’m a great listener, always curious about how people live and think. I’m very open-minded, non-judgmental, and genuinely enjoy deep, meaningful conversations.

Once I settle into a decent apartment, I’ll be happy to start hosting couchsurfers. Until then, I’m open to meeting up or helping however I can if you’re in or around town.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from different parts of the world and learn about diverse cultures and personalities while having fun

Interests

I love visiting monuments, exploring wildlife, rivers, lakes—you name it! When I have some downtime, you’ll find me watching TV shows, movies, or scrolling through YouTube, which is honestly my go-to for almost everything. Let's not forget, I also try to learn your language.

Cooking is a big passion of mine, and I’d love to take cooking classes in the different regions I visit. So if I’m in your area and you're up for sharing some culinary lessons, count me in!

Spending a whole day at the beach just watching the ocean rise and fall sounds like paradise to me. Hiking is also becoming one of my new favorite hobbies, so let’s lace up those shoes and hit the trail!

Overall, I’m very open and flexible when it comes to trying new things. If you have a suggestion, let’s do it together. My interests aren’t set in stone—I’m always up for an adventure.

Music, Movies, and Books

All genres of music is fine so long as it sounds good. RnB and Pop are my favourites. Not much of a reader because my attention span is kinda short and easily distracted, so giving me a book won't be a perfect, except it's an audio book.
