Overview
About Me
Young artist visiting the East Coast in search of nice things to draw !
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
On couchsurfing to meet locals while traveling on a budget. I prefer to get to know the people rather than going to touristy places !
Interests
Currently working as an art instructor in an outsider art center, drawing and printing comics with mentally disabled adults. I'm also finishing my first comic book and filling up a few travel journals with sketches and stories. I sometimes volunteer and organize concerts in a punk venue in Belgium. Love to watch movies and visit new places, would go for a beer, a good meal or a nice cup of tea with great pleasure.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Met some wonderful people in Mexico, California, Italy and on the East Coast while travelling. Some some amazing bioluminescence action in Santa Barbara while listening to Massive Attack with friends, learned so many things from amazing etching technicians in Oaxaca, spent a few days in Slab City with a man named Whitehorse and slept in the gardens of Luxembourg city to attend a strange Catholic festival. Would gladly hear your stories !
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you how to draw and how to speak French, or we could cook together! Nothing beats learning a good new recipe far from home.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Good meals, a portrait of you, your dog, your significant other, your kid, your favorite rockstar...
