About Me

To start off, my name is Valentijn (in english pronounced as Valentine, guess my parents where drunk when they chose the name), I am half Indian half Belgian which makes me love curry but at the same time a good stew with belgian fries (so f** delicious).
I would say I am someone who likes the unknown, discovering the unknown and learning from the unknown.
Meeting new people and having good conversations with them can make my day often, for example one time when I was in Kenya and we had to go to a performance of some dancing collectif, I met a taxidriver near the road with whom I talked 4 hours outside under a little roof in stead of going to that performance.
These people and their experiences or meanings in life give me insights and that's briefly why I like meeting people the most!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I absolutely had no idea in the beginning. I guess to increase the chance to meat people who inspire me or love doing things that I don't to open up my mind.

Interests

Good conversations, food & cooking, critical thinking, trying to find my way in this big world where being human is probably the hardest thing to be.

  • cooking
  • recipes
  • bbq
  • traveling
  • socializing
  • music
  • economics
  • humanity
  • dry humour

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything that moves me. Can be cats meowing when they are small, Brittain Got Talent people, Movies like "Les Intouchables", pretty much everything where people open up and share love in a way that they put themselves in a vulnerable position.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After 23 years coming to the conclusion that nobody in the world knows why we are here and how you should live your life, so if they say that they know how you should live etc.. You can just say in a decent way F* you! Brought a lot of peace in my head and I would recommend everyone to not give a damn about the way people see you living your life :-)

Apart from that, I fully managed to make a Wellington Beef (see youtube! It's kind of a christmas meal).
I really wanted to master that one!
