About Me

I'm a calm and sociable person who loves to meet new people and broaden my horizons.
At the moment I'm trying to find a way to combine my love for (art) history/archaeology with educational purposes, teaching youngsters how to get in touch with any type of heritage.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've come to a point where I'd like to figure out where I want to go with my life (both literally and figuratively). It would be amazing if I could ponder the possibilities while experiencing beautiful cities and connecting with locals.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books:
- I'm a sucker for fantasy, sci-fi, and the supernatural, but in the end I'll enjoy any book with an interesting plot and lots of adventure or mystery.
- Currently reading 'the Miniaturist'.

Music:
- I've got a very ecclectic taste, but tend to avoid heavy metal and consorts. I actively search for beautiful and memorable soundtracks/scores.
- I absolutely love Imogen Heap's work.

Movies and series:
- My choices here resemble my choices in books. I'm not a big fan of war or western "cowboy" movies though. Any level of drama is always appreciated.
- Some of my all time favourite movies include 'the Holiday', 'I Capture the Castle', 'Cloud Atlas' and 'the Fountain'.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- I've met Eric Whitacre and he knew me by the name 'Goodnight-moon-boy'.

- I'm planning a year-long trip with my cousins through Australia, starting in January 2019.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A listening ear, help in the kitchen, reviews on movies, random facts about a variety of subjects, etc. I'm pretty multi-purpose. Always prepared to tell/teach you more about my own language and/or country.
Unfortunately I can't host at the moment, but I'd love to guide you around whenever you decide to visit Belgium!
