Hey there! I'm an expat living in the most beautiful city of Belgium, Gent since almost 6 years.

My apartment, which is quite large and cosy, is just 5 minutes away from the main train station and 15 mins to very centre of the city by walk. I have a large sofa-bed in the living room, and pretty much everything you need.

I have been in every corner of this city and had great memories with my guests, my friends, sometimes just by myself. Be ready for a good company and a local guide 😉

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet with new people. I'm joining to international meet-ups in Gent regularly. We were also organising our own meet-ups with my friends on this platform before covid.

Couchsurfing is a perfect place to make friends and share experiences and memories with them. The most memorable moments in my trips are the ones that I shared with the people I met there or traveled together. I prefer hanging out with a local or a fellow traveler to just walking around like a tourist.
