Hi there!

How are you? Im Christel and after making a big trip in a year between my bachelor degree and my masters, I want to travel more and more (like most people). I am working as a search coordinator now, in short: when a patient in the Netherlands needs a stemcell transplantation (because of e.g. Leukemia), I try to find them an unrelated best matching donor (world wide). So yes, there is a very good chance I am working with a donor registry in you country. I don't travel the world for that, I do this behind my computer in Leiden. That's right, I live in Utrecht but I work in Leiden. So I still get to travel everyday ;-) Although it is less fun with all the grumpy people in the early morning. Anyway, just to sum up a few things about myself: Im easy going, into travelling and meeting (new) people, like to work out, read, hang out with friends & watch series and movies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great way to meet (local) people. I've only done it once so far and that was on the account of a travel friend in Australia.

Interests

Kind of already discussed this in the 'about me' section.

• working out
• movies
• traveling

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Do you know that question 'What's your favourite place/ experience from your travels?'. I don't like that question, it's just way too hard to just pick one thing. And this question is even more general, cause I could also pick something from just being back home. Too hard. We can talk about this when we meet.

I would like to hang out if possible, other than that: I won't make a mess of your place.
