About Me

I'm an 20 year-old student with Belgian nationality but have been living in England for 2 years for my studies as a chiropractor.
I love travelling, food, animals and everything medical.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing is a great way for youngpeople to afford travelling!
You get to meet loads of people, make new bonds and see the places through the eyes of locals.

Interests

I don't know how to make this a coherent text so here's some bullet points...

I've been in The Belgian Red Cross for almost 5 years, and the British Red Cross for almost 2, where I volunteer as a first aider and certified paramedic.
I ride horses and am a big fan of Natural Horsemanship. Unfortunately that hobby is pauzed due to going to university in another country...
I followed music lessons for 7 year and play guitar but I'm a bit rusty, anybody with skills is welcome to upgrade mine a bit!
I'm also a youth leader and I've guided summercamps for kids aged 11-16 to The Netherlands, France, Austria and Croatia.
I have a weird but wonderful combination of pets: a dog and a mountain goat (+ they're friends!!) I intend to get a hamster in my student accomodation.
I used to study nursing but needed more of a challenge and don't like the medical system that much so went looking for other things and now on my way to becoming a chiropractor! :)
I am very interested in languages (and I speak a few as well), my current fascination is Flemish Sign Language and I intend to become an interpreter after I finished my current course!
