QUICK NOTE:
1. PLEASE READ MY PROFILE. I get many requests that do not take my preferences into account. If that's the case I will simply decline the request

2. Make sure you have references. Meet some people on a couchsurfing event, or show some people around your city, and ask them to write a reference. I am not likely to accept guests who do not have any references.

I'll simply decline without further explanation so please read my profile properly first.

CURRENT MISSION

Find interesting people. Trust me, it's hard. Please convince me otherwise :)

ABOUT ME
Grew up in Belgium, spent time in Paris and London before moving to Hong Kong in 2008. And now I just moved back to Belgium. I'm gay, if that's important.
I got married since moving back to Belgium, so I can't host as frequently as before. Plus I'm in a village that does have some public transport options but is not nearly as connected as my place in Hong Kong was. But there are fields, cows, a large river and a chateau - life is rather peaceful here :)

Love outdoorsy things - kayaking, hiking, cycling, camping...

Strong interest in art in all its forms, creativity, and aesthetics of a very wide variety.

Generally open minded, yet opiniated about things that interest me. Operating a 'live and let live' mentality, my main goal in life is to be happy and allow others their happiness too.

I don't do alcohol or drugs - don't expect friends to do the same but I do ask them to respect it and not try to push me to do them.

Tend to be naked when I am at home. If you're comfortable with that that's cool, can put on clothes if you're not a fan of being naked. Or you could give it a try going nude, it's quite liberating.

PHILOSOPHY
Live and let live, pursue happiness and allow happiness in others. Doing things my way but I believe that my freedom ends where someone else's begins.

音乐、电影和书籍

Eclectic taste in music (From R&B to metal and opera - and most things in between, but picky with pop).
Movies: not a big fan of superhero stuff, anything else goes. Horror? Chick flicks? Animations? Slow and heavy stuff? All good.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Diving in Palawan is high up there, as was hiking on the Great Wall, going to a big Indian wedding in Bali, and doing a 10 day silent Vipassana meditation.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Smiles. Lots of smiles :)
Though I've noticed I don't smile much in pictures. Need to work on that lol
