Overview
About Me
I don't find myself on CS'ing that often as I'm not traveling as much as I did in the past, but still a firm believer in the mission and vision of this website. I recently finished my residency in Emergency Medicine and work as an ER doctor in Salt Lake City, Utah and Las Vegas, Nevada. I previously lived in Korea for a year and Italy for almost 4 years.
CURRENT MISSION
Leave this world slightly better than I found it.
ABOUT ME
Constantly curious, frequently restless, and overwhelmingly blessed.
I fear boring you with details that you may or may not find interesting or relevant. I used to be very active on CSing, not as much anymore. But try me...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
To host and be hosted. To learn from others and leave this world slightly better than I found it.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Stayed with some great people in breckenridge, colorado. The snowboarding wasn't half bad either.
CS'ed 9 nights in Japan at 4 different spots.
CS'ed in Davis and San Fran while looking for a place to live in Cali. Hosted several people while in CA. Looking forward to hosting more in Korea.
Took a long hiatus...

Lived abroad x 5 years (Korea x 1 and Italy x 4)
Running with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain. Read "The Sun Also Rises" by Hemingway for a taste
Learning to surf in Nica was pretty cool as well.
Aside from that, I try to never let a splendid sunset go unnoticed...
