It's important for me to live an authentic life, true to my nature which is curious, calm, colorful and creative. Enjoying the small things in life and trying to find beauty in everything around me... I like meeting new people, exploring new cultures and places, enjoying food and a good conversation.

I live with my cat Flo in a colorful apartment in Berchem, a lovely multicultural neighborhood of my hometown Antwerp. I like biking around in the city and exploring little pockets of nature out there. I spend my weekends often at my tiny house in nature, one hour outside of the city.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been travelling regularly for more than 15 years and have been to all continents, and it really has enriched and shaped my life. I've been on Couchsurfing since my early twenties, with mostly experiences in Europe, but it is sustainable travel in one of its most pure forms, in my opinion!

Interests

I like chilling out and being creative, be in nature, do crafts, garden and like to cook... I try to incorporate mindfulness and meditation in my daily life.

At home, I am active in my community by contributing to urban farming projects and as a guide for sustainable initiatives.

When traveling, I like to go camping, love (motorbike) roadtrips, enjoy doing homestays, and as a guide myself I like getting inspired by original guided tours.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being alive is WILD!!!
Let's swap some travel stories when we meet, I have quite a few of them ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

Oh, I'm curious about lots of things. Teach me whatever you're good at, I still have a lot to learn, I basically don't know anything! I'm a jack-of-all-trades, a creative generalist, but who knows which knowledge I could enrich you with :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good stories and good company! And I'm happy to bring a nice bottle of wine or prepare you a meal.
