About Me
ABOUT ME
I have traveled a year in Australia before to start the university and since then traveling and meeting new people is becoming for me one of the most important thing. I came back in Brussels to start my studies (anthropology/sociology) and did one year of Erasmus in Granada, Spain - another great experience. For the moment, I'm living in a flat with 2 others students and we'd love to host few couchsurfeurs per month!
I guess I could say I'm open minded and I love to travel and to discover new things, new people, sharing different opinions & ways of approaching life !
PHILOSOPHY
"There is a rumor that happiness is derived from money. This isn't true. Sure, you pay money to stay here, you had to work for that money, but that is a result of the most beautiful laws in life - equivalent exchange - buy money doesn't buy happiness. Happiness is felt in times like this : when you are seeing new places, meeting new people of different walks of life, learning others languages, eating new foods, and appreciating others points of view. So when you're hung your travel shoes and see them gather dust, don't forget that you once threw yourself in the wind. Encourage your children, your friends, your family, and your peers to feel the beat of the world, the breath of life, and the pulse of the earth by living, even for a month, in the moment. By the experiences you are living right now you should learn that in the moment you've got no time to lament on the past or worry about the future, and there's no better distraction than stepping out of your day-to-day life to meet new people and eat new places with your eyes. Tomorrow, when you'll wake up, realize the beauty of being alive, for that - no matter your heritage or your religion - is one of the three pure truths- the other two being : you were born of women, and you will die one day. - J.H. (unknown backpacker)"
That quite resume everything for me

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I stayed 1 month in a house full of couchersurfers in Airlie Beach, Australia.. each days new people were coming, it was certainly one of the best experience I've done. Since then I have tried to host couch surfers myself in Bruxelles

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Once, I've met this crazy dude, James in byron Bay/Australia. He was telling us about dangereous and wicked things he used to do just to feel alive. He invited us to follow him the next day, of course we say yes and we ended up doing a grand swing of 30 meters height in the wood... it was totally incredible !
