My name is Brecht and I'm a bartender in Ghent. I have not yet found my purpose in life, but I hope that one day I'll be able to tell people's stories. I like to write and play music, and I'm also a radio host for the local college radio, Urgent.fm

I believe we have the power to create our own happiness. Try to be happy within the context of the life we are actually living.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet and hang around with new, interesting people (hence my job)

Interests

There are hardly things that don't interest me, I can talk about practically anything, from culture to politics over history to science. But no sports. Please, for the love of god, no sports.

• culture
• writing
• dining
• cooking
• politics
• traveling
• music
• history
• science

Music, Movies, and Books

Music to me is something that can take me to places I have not been before, much like traveling. I love music in general. There are hardly any genres I don't enjoy to a certain extent, and I live to learn everything there is to know about the idea behind the music.

Also the occasional bingewatching of quality television. And I've probably seen every superhero movie there is. I am a simple man.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm good at sharing useless facts and trying to be funny. I'm also eager to learn stuff. And I like to know what makes people who they are, I want to know their stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Food. I love to eat, and I love to cook as well! And I can share love!
