Christopher Schacht, born 1993, grew up in the village of Sahms near Hamburg in northern Germany. His father is a Lutheran minister, and he has two siblings -  a twin brother (who is the exact opposite of him!) and a younger sister. After graduation Christopher had a full scholarship in computer science waiting for him, but he decided instead to embark on a trip around with world with only 50 Eurso in his pocket, no credit card, no backup plan, and no schedule or itinerary. His only provisions were an adventurous spirit, a positive attitude, a bright smile, and the willingness to embrace what lay ahead  - whatever people, traditions, cuisine, and work opportunities that came his way. In 4 years,  he travelled to over 45 countries and covered over 60,000 miles walking and hitchhiking, not once using a plane (who knew you can hitchhike across oceans?). Along the way, he encountered many different cultures, fascinating landscapes, dangerous adventures, great hospitality – and the Maker of all the greatness. And he also met the love of his life, Michal. After his return to Germany in September 2017, Christopher began to study Theology near Frankfurt. His book about his unusual journey was an instant success in Germany. Christopher and Michal married in June 2018 and are ready to face whatever new adventure life has in store for them.
