Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
For the first time in years, I'm trying to build a life in my homecountry, Belgium.
Enjoying the little things that life has to offer.
ABOUT ME
When I was given the opportunity to finish my studies abroad in Ecuador, I took it with both hands. That experience showed me a whole different part of this world and I realized that I only knew a few places of it.
The year after I went backpacking through Chile and another year later I spent 5 months exploring the indonesian islands and Malaysia. Most of it I could effort by working seasons in hotels in Switzerland, France and Canada I absolutely loved it. The months that I spent at home I used to catch up with my friends and for my other passion, teaching!
I recently moved to Ghent, to be able to spend some real time with the people I love. Gotta love this city!
PHILOSOPHY
Don't just live to build a future for yourself. Live now and enjoy every day of it!
When something bad happens, something good will follow (I experienced it myself several times)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
During my stay in Ecuador, I met some interesting people who showed me around :)
When my boyfriend and I arrived in Chile, we stayed the first days at someone's place before we started our real trip.
In the big cities of Indonesia and Malaysia, we stayed with locals most of the time. I think that's the best way to escape the traffic, the huge buildings etc. and to discover the real beauty of that place.
Interests
I like reading, listening to all kinds of music, practicing sports, being outside for a walk or just to hang out and enjoy the beauty of everything around me and many other things. I love to discover new things and I'm very thankful to everyone who helped/will help me with that.
While traveling I found out that I love to learn other languages and to practice them.
