ABOUT ME

Hey, we're Bianca (20) and Judith (21) - two friends who happened to go to the same high school and have been inseperable ever since.

Judith: I'm currently studying Fine Arts at the Academy in Antwerp. My main subject is painting - so that's what I do most of the time! I'm more of a night person than a morning person so I love going out to parties and you can also often find me in a cafe with some friends, enjoying the fine beers of Belgium! I'm a big animal lover and sometimes spend hours walking my dog. I fell in love with Spain the first time I was there and have been there almost every year ever since, trying to learn the language. I'd like to eventually move there.

Bianca: I'm currently studying again! And dreaming of walking the Via de la Plata to Santiago de Compostela in 2010 + another trip I haven't quite figured out yet.
I'm passionate about music and you can regularly find me at concerts. I also love cooking, although I don't get to do that as often as I'd like anymore... Apart from that I'm often found at the same places as Judith, I think it's safe to say that we're both quite easygoing, we're both interested in many different things and as long as you're passionate about something I'm sure you can drag us along in your enthusiasm!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We've both had quite a few (international) houseguests over the past few years but we've never really participated in Couchsurfing yet. We're curious to find out if it really is as great as everybody says it is!
