About Me

Travelling is my big passion ! (How original huh :)) For me it’s the most free lifestyle there is and the best way to learn and develop. I prefer to live day by day, to not have too many fixed plans so as to be open to whatever comes my way.

I’m a very relaxed and easy-going, open-minded person who doesn’t make drama. I am a huge nature-lover & enjoy music, reading and watching movies. I’m super grateful for whatever accomodation people can provide me & will of course try to help out around the house in whatever way I can. It’s also totally fine if all that’s offered is a place to sleep but I would love to hang out or join you in whatever activities you enjoy, I’m always up for doing new stuff. You gotta have tried everything once in your life eh?

Oh & boardgames! If I could I’d travel with another backpack just for games. So if you’ve got some great games let’s gooooo

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love that hosts stimulate me to do things I wouldn’t normally do, every host I’ve met so far is totally different & inspired me in different ways regardless of the levels in which we connected, there are always new things to be learned. Couchsurfing keeps putting me in totally new environments, sometimes forcing me out of my comfort zone, challenging my perspective, principles & way of life, allowing me to grow as a person.

Plus, I love getting to know locals, you can’t know a country if you don’t know its people. Locals can recommand you the best spots to go and recommand you the best things to do in the area and I generally find that Couchsurfing hosts are just awesome people ! 👌🏽 I am eager to become a host myself once I return from my travels.
