I am a film producer, entrepreneur, and actor. Most of my time I spend on developing new project such as documentaries and film, but I am also interested in start-up coaching and business ideas. I lived in Los Angeles for eight years, and am divorced. I am co-owner of a car mechanic shop in Van Nuys, California. Now I live back in Antwerpen where I started a film production company end of 2016. For a few years, I also ran a non-profit organizing video art exhibitions around the world. I love art, philosophy and conversations about character, meaning in life, anything substantial, and lots of humor. I am imaginative, creative, quite intelligent, social, but I also quickly tire of social life, and am quite content on my own. When I travel, I love to explore, try new restaurants, and I am usually on a mission to connect with people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am trying something new. When I was living in Los Angeles, I slept on a couch for a few months, and I found it quite comfortable. I travel quite a lot. This year alone I have been to Berlin, Cannes, London, Warsaw, Bergen, Amsterdam and Toronto. I would be able to got to more places if I did more couch surfing.
