About Me

Love meeting new people and discovering new places. Music is more than a passion or a hobby to me. It's a way of life. When I travel I tend to go to a place where the ocean is nearby so I can catch a few waves when it's on.

In Belgium I work as a social worker with kids/young adults between the age of 16 and 25 who basically get in trouble. Serious trouble. I try to help them by showing them a few other options in life. I truely love my job but it can also get under your skin. So when I feel the need to let go, I travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great way of meeting new people and discovering places in a way you couldn't when you book a trip with a group or just hang back in the hotel. I like to move around, meet local people and see the real stuff, not the stuff that's in every tourist guide. Also, I like to travel alone, with no restrictions. Couchsurfing gives you that opportunity.

Interests

Making music and jamming, enjoying scenis views, chilling out, surfing nice waves, travelling, reading great books, watching movies... All that stuff.
