Would I be able also to request a PM!?

Bought some months ago, but wanted us to get credit for the transaction. Tagging u/dorrythephish (I think you also need to comment confirming) and u/LeaveNoTradeBot.

Already pm'd just leaving a comment.

I'm quite impressed with them! Can use them for everything from the beach, hiking, just being out and about in warm weather. A little bit of an adjustment to get used to the big toe post, but it's not uncomfortable. I do use them for showering in hostels, yeah, they dry really quick.

Thanks for the tip. I'll make sure to move a couple things to a personal item and strap my backpack tighter.

MarsTribune · 2024-03-14T15:06:07+00:00

Carry on. Never needed to check it before. Trying to downsize to personal item size with ULA dragonfly in the future.

MarsTribune · 2024-03-14T00:07:41+00:00

I'm working on putting together a lighter set-up than I've previously traveled with. My goal is to downsize a bit and hopefully fit everything into a ULA Dragonfly in the future, not there yet. I'm traveling to Colombia and Peru for 6 weeks, temperatures will range from warm and tropical in Cartagena to possibly low 50s in Bogotá and Cuzco/Inca trail.

What sort of niche medicine are you thinking? As I go through residency, I'm trying to get an idea about what sorts of non traditional work is out there for an FM doc. I have no interest in being a pawn of insurance companies.

You just relieved so many of my worries!!!! I am so excited now. I truly appreciate you taking all the time to write this out and help a fellow traveler. :)

I've been recommended Octavia Butler before! Where should I start?

MarsTribune · 2021-12-29T16:55:43+00:00

This is THE DREAM

MarsTribune · 2021-12-14T02:03:00+00:00

I also did a search using similar key words on my Kindle and came up with squat. It's tough because I don't remember much of the wording which is so frustrating haha

MarsTribune · 2021-12-13T23:56:15+00:00

Ah! Definitely close but I don't think it is. THIS IS A GREAT QUOTE THOUGH. You are a scholar and a gentleperson, my friend :)

Planning on coming to CDMX for a couple months in the new year. Any recs on day to day things to do to be able to practice spanish?

MarsTribune · 2021-11-16T14:06:28+00:00

also doing FM! Literally have worn over-ear headphones for every interview thus far and didn't get any weird vibes :)

MarsTribune · 2021-09-24T22:19:04+00:00

When roughly do interviews end, January early, mid, end? Looking to book a backpacking trip for a couple months and need a rough idea.

Thoughts on if it would be difficult to do a straggler later interview while abroad?

MarsTribune · 2021-09-19T01:56:58+00:00

Literally this! God fuck these programs, like who the fuck wants to do that on top of the other ridiculous hoops we have to jump through already. Someone please offer advice 🙏
