CURRENT MISSION This summer, I stayed in my hometown Antwerp to prepare a PhD project that I hope to start with in november. Last summer (July - November 2018), I discovered the Balkan region by mainly hitchhiking. It was an adventure of meeting different people, experiencing other cultures and writing poetry on the road. If I could time travel, I would flash myself back without a doubt. ABOUT ME For 5,5 entertaining years, I studied philosophy and volunteered in the local scouting movement as well. After my trip, I plan to decide whether I will go for a doctoral project or another direction. PHILOSOPHY This is a problematic question to answer after five years of philosophy ;). Since the best insights arise from dialogue, I would love to discuss this subjeect with hosts, surfers or other couchsurfers

Por que estou no Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Since I'm not interested in high-end, expensive, touristy hotels, couchsurfing is my preferred way of traveling. All the times I surfed, I met amazing people with their own perspective on the earth and how to spend your time on it. In a few months, I will have some more place to host other surfers! Looking forward to that.
