I'm a Belgian singer-songwriter, working as a physics teacher to pay the bills,...

Although I studied engineering, my biggest passion is music, I love almost any style, as long as it can touch me.
I also play guitar (a lot) and I am learning to play the piano, making my own songs.

After engineering, I studied philosophy, mainly because of a strong interst in ethics, both human-related ethics, but I also pay very much importance to animal rights and ecology, which made me turn vegan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get to know some interesting people and experience traveling much more as part of the people rather than as a tourist. When seeing a city I rather get to know the mindset of the people, and their favorite coffee bar, or favorite piece of street art or little alley, rather than the biggest cathedral.

Interests

Music, politics, sociology, guitar, different cultures, languages.
And of course, I love to have long and good discussions about these topics :)
