About Me

ABOUT ME
! I am unfortunately not available for hosting those months as all rooms are occupied

I'm 25 years old and I'm addicted to travelling, discovering, meeting people and cultures, new adventures.
Last year I cycled from Belgium to Japan, going through France, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Serbia, Greece, Turkey, Iran, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, China, Monglia, China again, Korea and Japan. I continued afterwards through all central America and some Latin American countries.

It was rich journey. What I appreciate the most about bicycling is to be most of the time in the countryside, where the nature is more preserved and the people very welcoming. It makes me feel very peaceful. And despite the language barriers, I spent many rich moments with locals, learning about their activities, habits, sharing a meal, ...

I came back home in June 2017, and would be super happy to host any travellers coming in the region. I live and work in the center of brussels now, near place Sainte-Catherine. There is enough space to host some people so don't hesitate to contact me!
