About Me

CURRENT MISSION
- Saving the remaining nature in and around the city I live in.
- Saving up for the house and garden of my dreams.
- Mastering the art of juggling a very busy working life, too many hobbies and social activities

ABOUT ME
I'll give this a go with two key-words that describe me: outdoorsy and manager.
I care deeply about nature and the environment and try to maintain an eco-friendly lifestyle, without being to much of a hippy :). I love swimming, outdoor work-outs, long walks and consider every day not spent outside a lost day. I also love organizing (projects, events, my appartment...) and make lists of everything :).

PHILOSOPHY

"There's only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing and be nothing."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe couchsurfing makes the difference between just seeing a place as a tourist and actually indulging yourself in the city or country you're visiting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only couchsurfed once so far, but found in an amazing experience!

Interests

Let's discuss our lives and interests over a cup of coffee!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The many beautiful cities in Europe; Tanzania and Zanzibar.

Probably the most fun experiences in my short life so far, was swimming with dolphins in Zanzibar, eating fish barbeque on a beautiful square in Stone Town during sunset, wandering in Doha at night while seeing the palace of the Emir and Doha's skyline.

Teach, Learn, Share

What's there to learn from me: Nature and biology-related things; Lacrosse; Belgian culture, language and food.

What I want to learn: I want to have tried as much as possible at least once! Any experience going from sports, to work, to food, to trips... is welcome!
