Hi!
I'm Nele, a 23 year old Belgian girl. I just graduated as a psychologist and am leaving to Australia for 1 gap year in August. Together with my boyfriend Hendrik (29, orchestra conductor), I would like to make a big road trip along the Western coast of Australia.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Even though I'm sure we'll have the best of times together, we'd like to get to know a lot of new people and make new friends.

Interessen

Nele: games, aikido, windsurfing, crochet, music (I play the piano and like to sing), psychology, cooking, hanging out with friends

Hendrik: music (he's a conductor and plays the French horn), sports (triathlon), sciences, wooden handicrafts

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Nele:
I like a wide range of music, from classical to jazz, to modern music. My favorite movies are humouristic, and preferably with psychological twitst. My studies require me to read a lot of scientific books, so usually after that I don't read a lot. But when I do, I like funny & light literature.

Hendrik pretty much likes all kinds of music (and is always very curious to get to know more). His all time favourite is Richard Strauss - Elektra (the opera).
Favourite movie: Le conseguenze dell' amore
Favourite writer: Fernando Pessoa

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Nele: Tall ships race (2010)

Hendrik: opened an art gallery with handmade earrings, made out of coconut shell (www.brincococo.be)
