About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a 32 years old sportive belgian guy who's been walking from Belgium to Santiago de Compostela in Spain in the past. Currently i'm an unemployed philosopher and wanderer in life that's really in need to find out and visit some new places in the world in order to determinate a new homebase... Or just like visiting. I'm an unemployed marketeer, like to sport peripherally Running and Walking or bar sports like bowling ;-) Really like to talk to people about politics cultural differences and other boring stuff or deep emotional feelings and helping to understand and analyse problems in your life ... it's my GURU-Side ... But can be just cool and funny as well... depends from what i'm reflecting ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The about me's already giving you some hints and clues about my intentions... Basically my key intention in life is playing Pokemon Go, that weird game where people hold their smartphones in their hands and walk around the city like zombies checking continuously their phone for if they didn't have missed a certain rare pokemon type ;-)

I'm not really kidding ;p, only a bit :D But I really still play it!!!!!

Interests

Hey guys, lately i've been really trapped by the game Pokemon GO ... I know (for the marketeers, we're doing the life time cyclus of the game) it's quite old fashioned :D you even didn't know that it still exsists... well here is one of the old species that's still watching every virtual op popping pokemon in his range. You got to get them all!!!

And al the rest is also true ;) No... I like to visit cities by combining traveling and playing that addictive game... it's actually super cool because the points of intrest are been used like gyms or points of interest in game as well ... for I example, without to consult a tourist guide I can even tell you which are the importent buildings in your city :p it has it good parts ;) And it's just still fun!!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Quite everything that's not to loud and not till/At 7 in the morning ;) Movies ... Don't laugh ... I loved lady and the Tramp!!! And books... quite more difficult I don't really remember a lot of books I read due to a bad memory but I did like one about a quy that invented a chess machine but he was using a dwarf to play chess against the oponent... it's called the chess machine I Guess ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After a trekking in Nepal (small ghorepani track) I entered a small island with a temple and felt peace!! Don't cry that much ... but I couldn't stand it! Best feeling in the world. Hindouisme peace! ;-) and I also jumped from a bridge on a rope.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about PokemonGO if you want, I can also teach you about Belgium if you want, I can also teach/or help you with ms Word ... For if it's necessary or help with your computers... I can try to help you if you're a writer stuck in the middle of his book and give you some advice how I see things. Or i can just share you some of my experience in life... If our life matched it might be interesting to hear about... and can advice you about some things...

What I Can Share with Hosts

Can try to cook for you, I can pay you a bit of money. I used to follow massage cursusses... if necessary I can give a massage. Contribute to the costs. I can't sing otherwise I would... I can also Hugh you or high five you and send a card from Ghent! But for sure I can cook for you and make

Homemadeburgers if you want and if I find the ingredients
