About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To succeed in what I do!

ABOUT ME

I think I just go with the flow! When there is a dead point in my life, it seems that there is always something new and thrilling showing up after a while.
I'm an open-minded person who really enjoys travelling, meeting new people, culture and nature.
Always looking for new adventures and experiences (in working and travelling)that's what I do!

PHILOSOPHY

Live many lives - A wise traveler never dispises his own country (William Hazlitt) - A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving (Lao Tzu)

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm looking forward to meet you to share some ideas and lovely stories with a nice and cold belgian beer! While travelling, we can always meet if we cross each others roads. If I'm in Belgium, very welcome @ my place if it's possible. I can give you my own "guided" tour in Brussels, or just show you my little town and the curiosity's around it! Transport from my town to the main city's in Belgium is really easy!
