Hey friendsπ My name is John. I'm a medical student, optometrist, pilot and a kiteboarder. I enjoy exploring the world through travel, sharing those memories as well as concepts or ideas I've stumbled upon after reading a book or listening to a podcast. This is a space for me to share what I've learned, or things I'm currently learning about whether it be medicine, technology, travel or aviation related.
As of January 2021, I’ve been studying Medicine at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa. I qualified as an Optometrist in November 2020, after graduating from the University of Johannesburg.
What I’m Working on
I’m a medical student, and currently my main interest lies in bettering myself as a professional as well as to gain as much knowledge as possible within the next few years while working part-time as as optometrist.
π¬ I have a Youtube Channel that I am in the process of “reonvating”, So stay tuned for some great content regarding my journey as a medical student and other aviation related videos.
π I will be reviewing and sharing some notes on books that I have recently read.
On this site, I write articles about my productivity, generic life advice as well as any apps and tech that I have found interesting.
I really love aviation, so I’ll be sharing some tips and tricks about how I got my license and also what started me on my path towards becoming a pilot. Some cool stories about what planes I’ve flown and places I’ve flown to may also get thrown into the mix. βοΈ
Get in touch
π² Instagram – If you’ve got any questions or you’d like to stay up to date with the life and times of JB (That’s only if my content blows your hair back, lol) get in touch with me on my Instagram page.
π§ Email – Something longer? Hit my up at johnlbooysen@gmail.com , I reply to 100% of my emails!
βοΈ In Person – Meeting up with people in real life surpasses any kind of digital interaction. I’m always down to meet new people and have a chat over a coffee if you’d like to chat and share ideas etc. If you fancy taking a trip to Johannesburg, I’ll buy you a coffee and I’m generally available most weekdays after 7pm. Drop me an email at johnlbooysen@gmail.com, and we can work something out!
I am currently a Third year medical student at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa. I enjoy creating youtube videos, flying/restoring vintage aircraft, kiteboarding and reading books. I am a qualified Optometrist with a keen interest in the field of Ophthalmology, with a hope of specialising in this field one day.
