Hi there!

I am Christof, a 26 year old PhD student studying Clinical Neuroscience with the idea to pursue Medicine once I am finished.

I love running, climbing, kayaking, sailing, surfing and being in the outdoors as much as possible. I enjoy meeting people from all walks of life, people who are pursuing their own interests that will allow me a small insight into their lives. A big fan of food and cooking, and look forward to sharing and learning some recipes whilst travelling around.

Currently learning the piano and German and so always looking for tutors ;)!

I am very sociable, but can respect when others need their time and space. I enjoy partying as well as secluded hours in the mountains.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking for a fun way to travel; meeting new people, seeing new places and experiencing a little more than is on offer to the average tourist.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, but recently have fallen more into indie/relaxed/acoustic music (hard to describe, easier to show!)

Favourite movie: Into the Wild

Books: Mainly read a lot of factual books (currently reading one on The Myth of Scandinavia), but enjoy the odd terrible, easy to read throwaway novel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Made it through writing this self indulgent bio without stopping for longer than 5 minutes to catch my breath.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A fun and sociable personality, lots of stories, english practise (if you want..), basic German, blonde hair, some fun facts about Neuroscience (again.. if you want) and a great Coq au Vin recipe!
