Hi there!

I'm Claire, a 28yo french girl living in a village called Biesmerée (about 30km from Namur) with my boyfriend.

I grew up in the south of France but after completing my bachelor's degree, I moved to many places until I set up here, in this little paradise. I am very keen on living abroad, volunteering and getting to know local people when I'm travelling.

If you wanna discover something new than cities and explore the belgian countryside, that's the place to be. We live in a big caravan and there's enough space to put up a tent or sleep inside if it's too cold outside ;)
There's a lot to see, to do and to share !

Je m'appelle Claire, j'ai 28 ans et j'habite à Biesmerée en province de Namur avec mon copain.

Depuis mes 18 ans, j'ai pas mal crapahuté et vécu à l'étranger avant de finalement m'installer ici, dans ce petit coin de paradis.

Si vous êtes de passage et que vous désirez découvrir d'autres lieux que la ville, que vous avez envie de plonger dans les méandres de la campagne belge, c'est le lieu idéal. Nous vivons en roulotte mais il y a suffisamment d'espace pour planter une tente ou dormir à l'intérieur s'il fait un peu trop froid dehors ;)
Plein de choses sont à voir, à faire et à partager!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be on CS is a good way to meet people from all over the world, from different cultures and backgrounds. It makes you step out of your comfort zone and expand your horizons.

Interests

I like finding out about new cultures and lifestyles from people in different parts of the world. I'm interested in arts and literature as well as politics.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like very much reading essays and novels of many kinds. Among my favourite authors are Albert Camus, Edward Abbey, Ernest Hemingway, Simone de Beauvoir, Nancy Huston and many others... !

I'm mostly listening to pop rock music but I also like very much jazz, funk, blues, soul... If you're a musician at heart, feel free to make us discover new things! (the same if you're a good cook ;) )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On summer 2017, I hitchhiked through the Balkans for a month.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some french if you like (or English or Spanish). I'd be interested myself in learning other languages. Robin (my boyfriend) doesn't speak any foreign language but is really skillful with his hands so he could teach you some stuff related to construction, bike repairing, wood chopping etc. You can also give a hand in the garden :)
We're very keen on learning new skills, share any kind of knowledge, discover new dishes :)

Je peux vous enseigner un peu d'anglais, d'espagnol ou de français. J'aimerais moi-même apprendre de nouvelles langues. Robin (mon amoureux) ne parle que français (et un peu d'ancien wallon ;)) mais il est très doué de ses mains alors il pourra vous apprendre des choses en lien avec la construction, la réparation de vélos ou encore la coupe de bois, et autres joyeusetés. Vous pouvez donner un coup de main dans le jardin si le coeur vous en dit.
De notre côté, nous serions enchantés de partager des savoirs et des compétences. Tout comme de découvrir de nouveaux plats :)
