ABOUT ME

Belgian national but currently living in the UK. However, since I grew up moving around in south east Africa my home is where the climate is warm, the smiles are friendly, the music energetic, and the beer cheap ;)
Have been trotting the globe ever since and love meeting new people and just getting away from it all as I pitch a tent somewhere on a mountain top with a view.

Pretty much an easy going, open minded person with a very broad interest. There is little in this world that doesn't make me wonder "now why is that?" or "cool, lets have a try". Otherwise I hope to exhibit some form of intelligence (though less in the morning), tend to get along well with everybody, love a good party, and don't take myself too seriously :)
