About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make my way back to Asia...

ABOUT ME

Easygoing guy, relaxed and always in the mood to have some fun. Proud Belgian and thus a beer and chocolate lover. Not at the same time though!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a journey, not a destination.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My first CS on sweet Mss Sally`s leather couch 10 years ago already but I still remember her as if it was yesterday. (If all Cs encounters were like that... ) she got me started and hooked for life. Whenever I have a couch and am free to host, I open up the couch, wait and see what amazing person ends up on it.

Interests

Science. (more specific physics, computer and electronics) History of machines. (From the first steam engine till the design of the cars in the 60's) AlcoChess. (mix Chess and alcohol and notice how your thinking capabilities decrease by every move) Asia. (travelling in )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one? There's so many... How to pick just one?

Full moon party in Koa Pang Nang!

Sitting in a natural hot spring in NZ with snowy mountains surrounding me and a full moon lighting up the sky.

Stopped a train in the middle of its track, got on it and continued to its end station in Darjeeling, India.
