Enjoy a healthy lifestyle in L.A.
Plastic Surgery Nurse | Woo Jinri
Hello, my name is Jinri Woo.
I am a Physician Assistant (PA) working
at a plastic surgery clinic in Beverly Hills.
In the United States,
PAs are nationally licensed medical
professionals who work under physician
supervision to diagnose patients,
perform examinations, provide treatment,
and prescribe medications.
I work closely with the doctors here,
assisting during surgeries and supporting
them throughout various procedures.
My role also involves caring for patients
before and after surgery,
as well as answering their questions
and guiding them through the treatment
process here in Beverly Hills.
Q. What do you usually like to do in your free time?
Whenever I have free time,
I enjoy going to a café to study.
Sometimes, I’ll stop by an ice cream
shop to treat myself to something sweet.
I also enjoy taking walks with my neighbors.
Q. What is Los Angeles like?
I really love Los Angeles.
The weather is warm and beautiful,
and the people are friendly.
Life here keeps me busy, but in a good way.
Living in Los Angeles motivates me to stay active,
exercise regularly, eat well,
and pursue a healthy, positive lifestyle.
Q. Is there anything you pay special
attention to in maintaining a healthy lifestyle?
I usually make an effort to shop
at local farmers’ markets
when buying fresh food.
Most of them are run by local farmers,
which makes the experience even more meaningful.
One of the reasons I enjoy going is
because I can find fresh,
locally grown fruits and vegetables.
At the same time, supporting these
markets allows me to contribute
to the local community.
I also love the variety there’s always
such a wide selection of fresh
produce to choose from.
Q. I heard you picked up a beautiful cactus today?
Ah, yes, that’s right.
There are also many flowers
and plants at the market.
On my way back today,
I came across a beautiful cactus that I really liked.
I thought it would look great in my home,
so I decided to bring it back with me.
Q. I heard that you enjoy hiking.
Could you tell us a bit about that?
Yes, I really enjoy hiking.
I grew up in Portland, in the state of Oregon,
where outdoor activities are a big part of the lifestyle.
Growing up in that environment naturally
led me to develop a love for hiking
and spending time outdoors.
There are plenty of great hiking spots in Los Angeles,
including Griffith Park and Runyon Canyon.
Since it can get quite hot during the day,
late afternoon is usually the best time to go.
One of the things I love most is reaching
the top just in time to watch the sunset.
The view is always incredibly rewarding.
