We have concluded that I’m not a doctor, despite the fact that I’m a tall handsome man who wears white gown and works in the hospital. So what is it that I actually do?

A lot of stuff going, especially with the salsa, piano lessons, gym and work of course. Then I’ve, been a bit sick the last few days – thank God I’m working in a hospital. A few blood tests later it was concluded: I didn’t have any infection. No Malaria. My stomach didn’t have any weird [...]
