medicine & muses

About Christal

 

I've only been here for a young 28 years, but I've seen and experienced a lot of beauty the world has to offer -- whether diving in the dreamy blues of Labuan Bajo, dropping my jaw at Hong Kong's skyline alongside some of the best pals, eating my heart out at the world's best ramen joint in Tokyo, drooling at the charm of small town Shropshire, buying rp100,000 worth of pisang molen from my favorite guys in Kupa town, or just hanging with my oldest friends in my favorite mpls... Here's to sharing my experiences in cyberspace in hopes of encouraging others to go out and see the world -- and to always follow your heart in doing what you want, no matter how many lemons life throws at you. Currently I'm in med school for the next couple of years, but my life is full of other inspirations and aspirations including music, travel, video games, food (eating/cooking/anything/everything), photography, crafty beer, camping and most importantly my pup, Kiba. So this blog's dedicated to everything that keeps me going. Over the next few years of school, I'll hopefully  be able to sneak my nose outta the books long enough to see and meet some new places and people along the way :)
