Collins Do, Nicole

The author is a native of the Northwest who is none too stoically enduring some chilly winters while undertaking an anesthesiology residency in New England. When she looks out at the mountains she wonders where all the active volcanoes have gone to, and when she looks out at the sea she cannot quite get over that the sun rises rather than sets upon the horizon this side of the country. Ever since starting this series way back during internship she has been looking for good Thai food within a two hour drive; she has yet to find any.
