I'm belgian, french-speaking and father of 2 children. I'm an agronomist and I work in the brownfields soil remediation.

I love sports and i'm passionate of hiking and bivouacking in the nature.

I consider myself as an open-minded person, curious to learn from the others, eager for other cultures, and interested in so many other things like nature sciences, biology, youth and children education and travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined CS to meet new people in learning other languages. For now I want to practice my spanish, with hispanic people, in their everydaylife (I can teach french).

Mi español es básico; he pasado 1 mes en Sevilla para lo aprender, pero hace mucho tiempo. Necesito un bueno update porque quiero reorientar mi trabajo hacia empleos en el desarrollo o donde el español podría ser necesario.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would be glad to make you discover my place, bring you for example for a hike in the beautiful Ardennes, or for a nature immersion and night in the forest. I'm your guy if you want to explore Wallonia heritage and gastronomy, our folklore and traditional carnivals, and always count on me for a belgian beers degustation. Finally I'll teach you french 😉

If you host me, I want to make myself usefull for you. I can do good cooking, and I manage for all kind of construction works (paving, tiling, carpentry, painting), logging, trimming, garden work, ... I just can't stay on my ass.
And of course I'm always ready for hanging out !
