About Me

When reading my references it might be useful to know that I just moved closer to the city center. I haven't hosted anybody at this new place yet, maybe you'll be the first!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing is the ideal way to look into the heart of another one's culture/country.

Also I love sharing historical and other facts about Belgium (and his cities).

Interests

Reading, listening music, art, culture, cycling, the internet, news in general, hitch-hiking!, going out and the environment.

Music, Movies, and Books

//MUSIC: rather alternative music. Some of my favourite artists include Notorious B.I.G., Jenny Hval, Courtney Barnett, U.S. Girls, Leonard Cohen, Chet Faker, Nicolas Jaar, A Tribe Called Quest,... To get a clearer view on my musical taste, have a look at: http://www.last.fm/user/Dreetn

//MOVIES: Film classics such as... Cidade de Deus, Annie Hall, Reservoir Dogs, C'est Arrivé Pres De Chez Vous, Almost Famous, Nobody Knows, Casablanca, Touch of Evil, Citizen Kane...
//Quite a big Mad Men fan too.

//BOOKS My all-time favourite is Kundera's Unbearable Lightness of Being.
