Nomadic. I have spent 6 of the last 18 months in Europe and 6 in Northern Philippines.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Im an OG member from 2007. Most of my hosting stints were from 2008-2011. :)

Aside from hosting, I've organized trips to various places in the Philippines with Couchsurfers as well as attended community events.

Interests

TALKING. Hopefully you get to talk as well.

GEOGRAPHY! The atlas was literally my babysitter when I was 4 years old so I'm really into maps, capitals, flags and the geekery that goes with that.

MUSIC! I like listening, playing and writing music. While I can listen to almost any music, the music I write mostly falls under rock and metal. Nowadays, Ive been into a lot of EDM.

SPORTS! I root for the Dallas Mavericks. I would watch any sporting event as long as its not equestrian or curling. I also play a lot of sports but I'm most at home playing basketball and swimming.

Nowadays, I love going to music festivals and going on hikes. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to medical school and left during internship.
