I'm curious about the world. About society, environment, what is the everything? Much.More.Less. I like to observe my surrounding, I'm fascinated by the human psyche and our influence on it. I like western and buddhist philosophy, colours, images and words and the creation that happens using all these materials.

I've found out that no job can make me as happy as meeting new people and places do. I am a designer with all my heart, full of enthusiasm but at the same time care too much about people so I've been working as a social worker in various fields.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My first Couchsurfing-Host in Belgium hosted me and my friends for a week, became a close friend and we still see each other from time to time. This was the start for a long history of amazing people that I got to know here, so even though I never had the space to host someone in my flat because of my micro room in a very small shared flat, this is something on my list for the future: find a big house that I can share and return all the hospitality that was showed to me in the past eight years.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Take a plane to Canada with 21 years and only know that you have a hoponhopoff ticket for 30 days. The bus ride on the greyhound bus through the middle of Canada, the wide landscape was the most strange and beautiful thing I've ever seen.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook for others, mostly vegetable-based but touching different nationalities within it. Also I do meditation and yoga and can give some intructions on that, too. I've travelled a bit, I'd like to share stories about life on the road.

I can draw and paint and decorate, in case you need someone to help you renovate your place for instance! :)
