i was born and im still living in brussels, an amazing city that i learned to love over the years. i studied translation because speaking a foreign language helps me feel alive. i was fortunate enough to go study abroad two times, first in manchester, england and then in nagoya, japan. both were amazing experiences that shaped the person I am today and I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world
im a pretty chill person, i don't need much :) im talkative but also quiet at times, im very independent and i like spending time by myself so a good balance between social time and alone time is essential to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

a friend told me about it and i automatically liked the idea! really glad to be part of something that's based on something else than money. so far i haven't been able to host yet but i hope my living situation will change soon
