About Me

CURRENT MISSION

enjoy life. laugh. see the world!

ABOUT ME

Kind and social couple who loves to travel, meet new people and hang out.

PHILOSOPHY

Live in the now, laugh and love!

Let us say it with this beautiful quote:

Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.
Rainer Maria Rilke, 1903
in Letters to a Young Poet

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We live in a lovely city called Ghent, that we are very proud of. We would be happy to show you around, if we have time. During the week isn't easy because we're working but in the weekends we can find time.

We think couchsurfing is a much more unique way of travelling: it's more social and with a feel of home. A lovely way to also meet likeminded people!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have done several livingroom-concerts where we have let musicians (that became friends) stay for one or more days/nights... Great times... :)

Interests

going to concerts, playing the guitar, listening to old and new records, visiting museums, watching movies, hanging out with friends, making beer, cooking creatively with mostly organic foods,...
