ABOUT ME

Just doing my best to be a decent human and see as much of the world as I can at the same time.

PHILOSOPHY

Amor Fati, and find the magic in the mundane.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Traveling for work and this is a much better way to meet people than staying at a hotel.

Interessen

I love being outside, enjoying the fresh air, and exercising in any way I can find possible. I love music, I play mainly guitar and a random assortment of other string instruments. I also love reading and learning about anything and everything that I can.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

In the summer of 2018, I was staying at my grandparents house to help out, and had just gotten back from work when I heard my grandmother screaming from the backyard. I raced out back to find that my grandfather had collapsed from a heart attack while trying to cut down a tree by hand. I dialed 9-1-1 on my phone and gave it to my grandmother, heaved my grandfather off of the stump, and gave him CPR until the first responders arrived and revived him with the AED.

It was my introduction to the world of Cardiology, and the event that steered my down the path I'm now on, with hopes of becoming a Pediatric Cardiothoracic Surgeon.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Some favorite aphorisms:

Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone - it's the only way to grow.

Everyone's a little broken - it's only through the cracks that light gets in.

If it's not going to matter in five years, it's best not to get upset about it right now.
