CURRENT MISSION

not planning ahead to much, living the moment and letting spontaneous decisions be made

ABOUT ME

My home is in Deinze on the countryside but grew up in the beautiful city of Ghent, without a doubt the most interesting city you will visit in the area! I'm very open-minded and have lots of interests, so there are very few activities I won't like. Currently I am still finding my way and where I want to head for as I just finished my masters degree in geography (Ghent University). Before I'm throwing myself into the realms of the working society I will travel trough Africa for 4 months, together with 3 friends. I love meeting new people especially abroad, but even at home an interesting foreign encounter feels like travelling. My sparetime-goal is to find a balance between my hobbies and my urge to see some nice things on our blue ball. My great passion above all is music: listening, playing and creating. I dj, I produce electronic music(http://soundcloud.com/obliviumdnb) and I'm studying jazz saxophone, when I'm not occupied with these things I'm still listening to music very actively.

Furthermore I enjoy photography, going to a good party, spending time with my girlfriend, having fine meals, chilling out with my friends, gathering knowledge (especially all things geography, history & science in general...yes I can be somewhat of a geek, I'm quite sensitive for technology and gadgets too).

Enough about me, lets talk about you, send me a request if you would like some of my super-cultural tours in Ghent, and yes, bars are cultural!)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A little bit. Surfed for 17 days in Corsica over two periods, as a field trip for my master's thesis. I hosted an American guy for a night/day during the Gentse feesten festival, a 10-day open-air street festivals in the centre town. I Both love surfing and hosting!
