I love to get to know people and their stories - I like to make them up as well. I graduated in creative writing but worked in art direction for film and tv for some time. I changed fields completely a couple of years ago and am now putting my social commitment into practice working with refugees in Brussels.

Also: I love stretching, being in the water, discovering new music, practicing a new language, climbing rocks near the sea, watching the same film over and over again once I found a real good one, DIY stores, talking to myself out loud in other languages while driving a car, analog photography, tasting of other people’s food, house dance and Latin dances, wandering around in Brussels and see all kinds of cultures, music and colours passing by, making exceptions to my vegetarianism for a typical local experience, spontaneous dance parties in a living room, and getting lost in a city I don’t know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it’s the most natural and logical thing to do, sharing and learning, and the most beautiful way of travelling.
