Hi!
My name is Chiene, I am 28 years old and since 5 years I've been working as a midwife in Antwerp, where I live.
Since I've started working, I've tried to travel as much as possible.
In my job, I meet a lot of different people with various backgrounds, and that triggered my interest in cultures from all over the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I travel I like a good variety between the typical tourist locations and the hidden places the locals go to.
I love to meet local people who, in my experience, can show me places that really define the feel of a country, city, village,...

When I host people I love to show them a different side of Antwerp.
A Belgian beer at 'Het zeezicht' or a picknick at 'De schelde' can give you a more complete feeling of Antwerp.
