Christoph Rehage (33), was born in Hanover, Germany.  He did a high school exchange program in the United States, civil service in Frankfurt, and one year in Paris, where he spent flipping burgers at McDonalds and guarding the Musée du Louvre.  A spontaneous walk home from France was a pleasant diversion before undertaking Chinese studies in Munich. After the intermediate exams, he did two more years of language and cinematography in Beijing, then decided to walk home from there, too.  He documented this journey for all of us to view in his book "The Longest Way"
