I Left Residency And Went To Alaska

[@ShaunAndersen]

Work hard. Play harder. Do fun things. That’s the motto 🙌🏻 definitely enjoyed a much needed break from working and studying so much lately. What fun things are you all planning this year?

[@DaHarve]

Needing a trip to alaska hard now!!

[@ShaunAndersen]

@DaHarve10/10 I highly recommend

[@fran0162]

I agree...life is way too short to stay in the comfort zone. I plan on being in better shape...and Im doing a 4k walk in May and maybe a 5K run sometime in the Fall

[@darriontunstall3708]

That’s awesome, I’m glad you had fun!! And enjoyed it, you have nice feet at 13:05 , my fun things I’m doing is donating to the anesthesiologist Foundation again in August, I donated on new year, I’m also going test drive the new BMW that’s coming out in the fall, I’m gonna get my all electric car and let other people drive it for me

[@bobiscius956]

I may need to do a 4th year rotation up there. It looks beautiful! Great and informative video

[@arleneprisco3103]

You've come such a long way since I first watched your 1st year medical school vlog.....you will be a great well-rounded physician!

[@ShaunAndersen]

Thank you so much! That means a lot!

[@FiveStarScorpion]

Absolutely beautiful man! You worked hard and now you can play hard. All love brother! From a Texas MS1

[@ShaunAndersen]

Thanks brotha 🙏🏻 good luck with the rest of your first year

[@bradenburzynski]

Keep going! Even though the views may me down, we need your vids!

[@ShaunAndersen]

Appreciate that, I’m trying my best!

[@RR-px7qd]

Thank you for posting this. It was so inspiring to me. I’m a Doctor in Mexico and this remember me why I’m doing all the process to be a Doctor somewhere else. Besides you are so fun to watch, and the landscapes were incredible amazing.

[@miguelmaqueda9073]

Great video with amazing scenery of the mountains! Congrats on the pto and a well deserved break! I hope you had a great time in Alaska!

[@ShaunAndersen]

It was exactly what I needed! 😊

OMG, first for the first time ever!! Hi from Seattle, Shaun!

[@ShaunAndersen]

Early gang!!! My layover was in Seattle :p

@@ShaunAndersen You are the 1st this time. But I shall get my record back. Also I'm Shaun's favorite subscriber no matter what. Right Shaun ;)

[@zarwatahir6284]

Hi Shaun! This was such a fun video to watch! The scenery is so beautiful and you did an incredible job editing. I’m so happy to see you had a great time. You truly deserve it. It is amazing to see how an individual can have a passion for medicine, but not have their life revolve around it. I know that is a trait that will continue to serve your patients well. Hope you have a great week ahead! Your rock :)

[@johncampbell1152]

BRILLIANT!

[@ShaunAndersen]

Thanks John!!

[@doctorshawn3461]

[@letty88]

The way you look at your friend Daniel when he says, "You're taking off on this one". 😄 That's the coolest adventure! Epic to say the least 🎉

[@ShaunAndersen]

I was nervous but I knew Daniel was confident in his abilities as a pilot soooo I was down for it 🫡🤣

[@fran0162]

Wow...Dr. Shaun...first of all- what a great place to break up the monotony of residency than to visit the " Last Frontier" of the US! Stunning! Look at you snowboarding!!! Just like tricking :) Great to see you relax!!! Thanks for sharing!

[@gloriousmutswakatira13]

Wow, Alaska is beautiful, l am from Africa and have never seen such a place 😅 😮 thank you, and have a great week

I was literally thinking about when you were going to post a vid and the video appeared!

[@ShaunAndersen]

[@actipton80]

The scenery in Alaska is beautiful. I'm glad you shared it with us out here in youtube land. I bet your doggies were happy to see you when you got home. I'm keeping my parents' dog while they are cruising to Antarctica, and she's asleep on my lap right now.

[@ShaunAndersen]

Aww so cute! They were very excited when I got home haha dogs are the best

[@lstokes25]

[@bradenburzynski]

Great vid! When's the first anesthesia rotation?

[@ShaunAndersen]

July I think!

[@putnamdesign1072]

when i read your title it wasn't clickbait to me because i knew you did "leave" residency i'm glad you were able to get away

[@ShaunAndersen]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@DaHarve]

Never been this early ever. Absolute madness

[@ShaunAndersen]

Early gang is the best gang 🎉🎉🎉

[@JTOT77]

I'd love to move to Alaska! I love the cold, nature, and mountains! Glad you had a good time! Also, Have you ever thought of doing cameos? You'd make extra money during residency! I'd definitely pay for one!

[@ShaunAndersen]

It was incredible! And no I haven’t thought about it :o honestly I didn’t think there would be any interest it!

[@lorraine7917]

Happy for you but I'm not going to lie, I was worried (very) about that yellow plane. Glad all is safe. You deserved your PTO and you did it big!

[@ShaunAndersen]

It was spooky but I had a very experienced pilot!

[@dcdc-w8c]

Great video! I guess you passed Step 3, right? congrats!!!!!!

[@ShaunAndersen]

Spoiler: I did :) thank you!!

[@andrewrom1867]

Hey Shaun, I have a bit of a random question for you-I'm just curious. You might have mentioned this in a previous vlog, but when you vlog, do you use your everyday phone, or do you have a separate device specifically for filming? By the way, great video! Keep up the awesome work!

[@ShaunAndersen]

I use my phone! It’s so easy to just point and shoot! :)

[@TheCube_Vibe]

YOU WERE WITH DANIEL ILES 😮 IVE BEEN WATCHING HIM FOR 5 YEARS ❤❤❤

Yo no way that’s crazy! He’s such a cool guy!

hello doctor , missing your hair style .

[@ShaunAndersen]

Haha maybe I’ll change it back!

[@devmehta236]

Btw shaun, i was legit considering not becoming a doc , because of the whole work life balance thing. Idk tho , i really want to be a doctor and even so research sometime later . But the whole not having enough time for yourself and your loved ones is a huge negative.

[@ShaunAndersen]

I can definitely understand that, but one of the points of this vlog is to show you can balance both! :)

[@AbdulMoiz14-PK]

Do you read comments🤔?

[@ShaunAndersen]

Every single one!

Sorry this is unrelated to this video, and please feel free to ignore if it is too personal, but was the idea of taking out hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loans ever daunting to you?
