Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travelling around and learn about other cultures!
ABOUT ME
I live in a little flat in Mechelen, a little, very nice city in Belgium.
I finished my studies in art history, archaeology and cultural sciences. The last years I worked on tall ships around the world and now I'm looking for a job more nearby.
I like travelling around. In Morocco I had, with one of my brothers, my first CS-experience and I liked it very much.
In the future, I'd like to combine all kinds of travelling: working, sailing, hitchhiking, couchsurfing....
So maybe we'll meet one day on a place somewhere on earth!!
PHILOSOPHY
“A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it is not open.”
(Frank Zappa)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Untill now, I don't think I helped by building this community, but I'd like to participate more. I like this kind of travelling, because in this way you can learn about other cultures in an intresting manner. You can meet lots of people, practice your language-skills...
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had my first CS-experience in Tanger, Morocco, some years ago. I tried to surf some couches in Mexico as well, but it didn't work out. I didn't have the right skills at that moment, to send mails and get contacts, I guess. I hope it will be better next time I try to find a place :o)
Interests
Play music, listen to music, juggle with friends, teach children (and adults) how to juggle, art (my favorite part in art history is 19th and 20th century), travelling, travelling...travelling... (I wish I had more time!!) and sailing around in Europe and the rest of the world!

Music, Movies, and Books
I read many books but at the moment I prefere the books of Isabel Allende. Music... hmm also a difficult one... I listen a lot: classical music, reggae, ska (these music I know from my brothers!), but also normal rock and pop music and some more oldschool groups.I like to watch movies but I don't really can say the kind I like the most. It depends of the moment :o)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
That's the thing why I like traveling so much. Every place is special, has its own typical things. So, this question is a bit difficult. I've seen more nice things than I can write here down, so if you want to know... ask me when we meet!
