About Me

CURRENT MISSION

use the "surf" function (and not just the host function)

ABOUT ME

Born in 1975 in Thunder Bay (of all places) from Belgian parents. Grew up mostly in Belgium. After high-school,I have lived in various countries in North-America and Africa but decided 7 years ago to "settle-down" again in Belgium, my "homeland"... I keep traveling a lot though.
I have my own place in Brussels and host regularly.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I created this profile back in 2008 but I was sharing a place at the time and not able to host... then I got my own place and a great couch (more like a real bed in fact), and I was happy to start hosting regularly.
Now I share a place again so it's less often but still happy to host from time to time

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

even before the internet existed, I guess I "couch-surfed" .. I just did not know it was called that way ;-)
with my job and all, I have less opportunities to travel around for long periods of time so this website helps me helping other people.

Interests

I'm a very sociable person and enjoy meeting friends, helping lost tourists in the streets, getting to know people I have absolutely nothing in common with, etc. But I also enjoy quiet evenings at home.
Traveling takes a big part of my free time (and my budget). When in Belgium, I swim as often as possible and play water polo.
