I'm open minded, energetic, polite and friendly! I have an curious and communicative personality with respect for personal boundaries.

I like to be active, explore the unknown, educate myself in every way and enjoy experiences rather than photograph or document them.

My best features are my ability to tell a story, I'm ready to lend a hand, I'm respectful and honest.

*** I have been inactive on CS for years now, but starting to role back into it as of 2024. ***

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling I met a lot of nice people and there are probably a lot more of them out there. I feel couchsurfing could be a way to meet some of those lovely people.

I like to keep an open view and I think meeting and hosting strangers helps me do this. I like the spontaneity of couchsurfing encounters and the exchange of ideas and experiences. Surfers that are just looking for a place to crash are not for me.

I also detest tourist traps, which I hope to avoid with the help of a local. Truth be told, visiting tourist traps in the right company has proven fun in the past.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve faced a couple of challenges in my life and I’m very happy and grateful that I was able to overcome them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to learn about culture through people's everyday life (or as close to it as possible). This includes learning some of their customs, language, hopes, dreams and fears, etc... If you'll teach I'll listen!

I can share experiences and insights from a traveller's and a Belgian's perspective. I really enjoy cooking, i would like to learn to make dishes from your culture and will happily share some of the recipes I’ve picked up. I will teach anyone Flemish if they're interested and if you need help with mathematics or other applied sciences I'll see what I can do :)

I’m up for anything really when travelling, so if you just want a relaxed “come as you are” hangout, reach out.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm clean, friendly and polite. If you like to go out or explore and you need someone to hang out with, I'm in!
I really enjoy cooking together and eating together. I'm always ready to lend a hand, so if you have a project you need some help with, I'm in.
