I am a young adult living in London, UK and currently working as a coastal/maritime engineer. I was born in a belgian family that kept on moving to different countries which left me with a taste for travel and meeting new people. I grew up in the Middle East as a child. I am open minded and love exchanging new ideas. I value reciprocity and kindness the most.

Teach, Learn, Share
I love discovering new things, getting new ideas and perspective by discussing with people. I can talk about my experience living in Belgium, UK and the Middle East. I will bring presents from where I come from to my host.
My Interests
Next to my professional interest for engineering. I am passionate about history and philosophy. I also love oil painting (Turner is one of my favourite painter) and pencil drawing/graphic novel. Travelling is my favourite hobby and I usually alternate between cultural trips in cities and hitchhiking holidays in the nature (Scotland being my favourite rainy destination).
