I visit a lot of concerts and music festivals. Oh, and I like to travel to! I like to meet people everywhere in the world, enjoy culture, arts and appreciating nature. I love to hike also.
In 2013 i traveled half year through central and south america, you can read al about it on my blog (in Dutch): http://www.lievenfieremans.be/category/op-reis-2/
During that half year a learned Spanish... It would be nice to practice Spanish with couchsurfing guests, by the way!
this all sounds a bit chaotic, and yes it is, but don't be afraid, I have everything under control :-)

if you like we could be your guide around Antwerp. We know a lot of places, but we are still discovering others in our dynamic ever changing city. Maybe discover some together with you! :-)

We have an house in Antwerp, Berchem area. A 10 min walk from the Antwerpen-Berchem railway station.
A 30 min walk from the city center. 10 min cycling (depending on the traffic lights :-) and where you want to be).
the cylcing path around Antwerp is really nearby

PHILOSOPHY

I wanna try as much as possible, taste all the flavours, see the whole world.
