Hi, my name is Lena and I'm from Ghent, Belgium. I'm 18 years old. Right now, I'm in high school following a language/Latin course, but next year I will be going to university :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really like traveling and meeting new people, so I hope this will happen by using Couchsurfing. I also love my home town, Ghent, and I would like to share the beauty of this city with visitors from all around the world. If you would like a tour of the city, feel free to message me!

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't really have a favourite genre of music, but listen to different genres. Some of my favourite bands/artists include The Lumineers, Oh Wonder, Lorde, Billie Eilish...

I really like watching tv shows, I really enjoy those! Some of my favourites are Game of Thrones, the Big Bang Theory, Orange is the new Black, Grey's Anatomy, Prison Break... the list goes on!

I also read a lot of books and I watch a lot of movies, so I really can't pick just one! I do prefer fantasy/fiction over non-fiction, but I read/watch both.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was in Spain, I think it was 3 years ago, we went on this kind of hike through a river. Suddenly, there was this cliff. It was 5m tall and we had to jump off. Back then, I had this fear of heights, but I still jumped, and after I jumped, I realised that I wasn't really afraid of heights anymore, because I knew it couldn't hurt me. That's a moment I will never forget.
