CURRENT MISSION

To See the World and Persevere in all of my Endeavors

ABOUT ME

I love new languages, trying new foods, new cultures and new friends. Of course that doesn't mean that I don't enjoy the old things in this world too... ancient codes, secret family recipes, medieval/renaissance/classical/baroque art and music and architecture, and of course old friends. Basically, I'm just out to enjoy the world and all it has to offer! Nature and culture were meant to be appreciated!

PHILOSOPHY

Perseverance

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Each time I've couch surfed, I've made new friends, learned about culture, and made fantastic memories. I am on here to make the world a smaller place through new international friends and shared experiences. I love staying with hosts, and as soon as I've moved this June I hope to host myself! I am willing to meet up for coffee/sight-seeing/lunch/dinner with the locals on my travels....that way I can get first hand information on the goings on of where I'm visiting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couch surfed in Venice Italy, and Cambridge, England. I'm looking to do more though!! I have also stayed at alumni's houses, and I have stayed with a number of host families on my different abroad experiences. I'm a good guest, I keep tidy, do my own dishes, and love a good conversation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a year as an exchange student in Poland, studied abroad in Demark, traveled for extended periods in Costa Rica and hosted several exchange students with my family growing up. I just finished medical school and am starting Residency in Family Medicine in California!

Teach, Learn, Share

I speak Fluent Polish and Spanish, I love to cook (both teach and learn I guess), and I'm studying to be an Family Physician but my main goal for that career path is to become a Doctor and work for Doctors Without Boarders (or some other international Medical mission work).

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a great cook and would love to share a meal with you as a thank you! I can also share fun stories and an evening or afternoon of laughter :)
