I am a 28 yo male. I love science, medicine and learning languages. I have my own Youtube Channel, where I make science and medically-related videos.
Check it out: Science With Chris.

Very niche but something that I absolutely love.

Linguistically, my goal is to be proficient in Russian and German. I am finishing up my first year of medical school. I hope to go into either geriatrics or oncology.

Also, here are a few videos of the countries I have been:

(Most Recent) Africa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJNL8482C6s&t=422s

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just trying to accommodate solo backpackers that are trying to explore Albany, NY. I really like the concept and I would be happy to provide a place for someone to sleep. I just finished my graduate education and have time to relax, and I want to spend some of that time helping people out on their journey throughout life.

Also, this is a better way to experience the world! Simple as that. I would love to meet as many people from around the world as possible!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I created a tutoring organization at my school that currently has 30 tutors providing over 1000 hours of tutoring a quarter. The tutor program is still going on and is at my school in San Diego.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: If you want to know about immunology or virology...I am more than happy to put my masters degree to use.

Learning: I want to learn about you and how you arrived to where you are! Learning your language is also a plus.

Sharing: Positive Experiences

What I Can Share with Hosts

An extremely wide range of music (Domestic and International) Riddles, jokes and most importantly deep conversations.

Also, I like to have a great time and make the most out of every moment. I like living to the fullest and experiencing everything! At the end of the day, the memories are the gems of life.
