CURRENT MISSION

To work in the ER without losing my idealism, and then to travel the world in some global health capacity. Learning how to fly, if I find the time.

ABOUT ME

I like going places. I like sharing stories. I like books and friends and movies and wine and coffee. I also really like to cook.

PHILOSOPHY

Be nice to people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new at this, hoping to do a lot of surfing in the future. I've been too busy over the past few years finishing med school to travel, so haven't had the chance to use this awesome website much.
Sadly I currently live in shoebox so have no space for surfers, but as soon as I have a larger place I'll be happy to share it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Noob. But I'm a good person!

Interests

Books, bikes, music, friends (old and new), coffee, whiskey, storms (both snow and thunder), comfy seating arrangements, fresh air, sunshine, snow, video games, adventures, cats, dogs, picnics.

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh god, where do I begin?

In no particular order:
music: Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, the National, Grateful Dead, Mumford and Sons, Decemberists, Pixies, Grizzly Bear

Movies: Super Troopers, Star Wars, the Goonies, Dogma, Avengers (let's face it, I'm a sucker for most of the new Marvel stuff), Hook, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Wayne's World

Books: everything from high brow literature to low brow fluff books that you can read in the afternoon. Ask me about it, if you're curious!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungee jumping at Victoria Falls, Zambia - plummeting into rainbows.
- also going to the lunar rainbows at the falls
Wandering around Laos with a motorbike, some new friends, and no plans.
