Hi ! My name is Jonas Dammekens, I'm an 20-year-old economics student at the university of Ghent, Belgium. I love hiking, jazz, electronical music (in my spare time I'm a dj), economics , sports and Ghent. If you're in Ghent and you would like a free guide, just send me a message and I will show you all the beautiful things our city has to offer ! If you're an erasmus student here and you would have any question, just ask ! :)

+ My appartment in Ghent is really really small (10 m2), so I don't really have that much space for couch surfers :(

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

- To meet people
- To show Ghent
- For hiking
