I am Christopher from Germany. I'm 24 years old and looking for a place to stay and great people to spend time with while I'm in Toronto in autumn 2017. Currently I work as an IT consultant in Germany. In my spare time I love reading non-fictional books and listening to TED talks. My taste in music is somewhat unique: I'm a big fan of pop songs played on classical instruments, especially the cello. Aside from that, I regularly travel the world and meet people with diverse backgrounds and interesting experiences to share. If you're willing to host me, I'm very much looking forward to hear from you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have had two great experiences (one through Couchsurfing.com, the other one through a different platform) with couchsurfing in the US. In 2013, I stayed in Miami and Houston. Now, in 2017, I will visit North America again. This time I will go to Toronto.

I firmly believe that couchsurfing has several advantages for both the host and the guest. Here are my reasons:
1. Free place to stay - one of the biggest points for me, not gonna lie ;-)
2. Meeting new people and possible making new friends.
3. Having a local person to give you tips.

If somebody wants to stay on my couch, you're always welcome. The Eifel area is a well-known national park and has a lot of beautiful spots. Connect with me, if you are interested.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I won the German national championship for shorthand writing. Ask me about it!

Teach, Learn, Share

Math is a favorite of mine. And I like to believe that I'm good at explaining it. In the past, I tutored several high school students.
