Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Think green.
ABOUT ME
Native Belgian, quite easy-going, highly nonjudgemental, humour of the dry variety or at least having characteristics thereof (funniness may vary), generally positive mindset, worried about the future of the planet in a positive way, trying to be an 'eco guy' (turning vegatarian is still on the list)...
PHILOSOPHY
Be true to myself.
Think creatively and always see the opportunities no matter what the problem/conditions.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
No experience whatsoever! :-)
Really excited to get started, though...
Interests
Ecotechnology, sustainability, all things that make the world more breathable.
Creative methods and tools.
Huge interest in all things related to CAD and rendering!
I should do far more skiing...

Favourite movie of the 90s: Jurassic Park (those friggin dinosaurs!!)
Favourite movie of the 00s: Gwoemul, aka The Host (Brilliant monster movie!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My jaw dropped on the floor when I saw my brother (who has Spina Bifida) skiing downhill in his monoski without assistance for the first time.
I'm genuinely proud that I convinced him to start skiing in 2008.
Teach, Learn, Share
Interested in sharing ideas about sustainable lifestyles and living.
As an industrial designer, I'm willing to share experiences all day long (even pull all-nighters...) about design, engineering, CAD and rendering.
I think I have a few tricks up my sleeve. :-)
