Discovering the world on the No-Plan-Plan
ABOUT ME
well....I LOOOOVE travelling and started my travels years ago. now, I can't stop travelling! so much to do, so much to see, so many people to meet!
In 2006 I decided to leave Belgium to go and explore the world.
I've been working and living in several countries. Greece (summer season), France (1 year), Tunisia, Spain (summer season), Australia and Canada.
I traveled for one year in Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia. Met a lot of people from who I could learn a lot about other cultures, languages, different lifestyles...
Went back home working as a flight attendant and then left again to travel.
Traveled for 1 year to the USA, Central and South America. Loved it!
Then went to Canada to work and travel for 1 year. went from East to West and spent the Winter season in Whistler.
After Canada, back to the USA and Central America.
I'm now in Mexico and next... who know's...?
PHILOSOPHY
My 'plan', is the 'No-Plan-Plan', that's my plan !
(and it's the best plan!)
have FAITH in DESTINY
LIVE your DREAMS
GO for IT
SERENDIPITY !!!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
For sure, I'm almost never home... I'm always somewhere in the world... looking for a new place to call home. once I find this place, surfers will be more than welcome!
I hosted friends that I met during my trips and coming over to visit Belgium (when I'm there) or France where I lived 1 year.
I met super nice people thanks to CS.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
since I discovered CS, I would love to surf at least once in every country I go to to experience the local life. next to CS I also enjoy Home Stays.
Interests
travelling ( of course ;-) ), meeting people, reading (a lot, I have always to much books in my backpack than my backpack can handle), listening some chill out music and I LOVE LOVE LOOOVE animals. I hate people who hurt animals.

Music, Movies, and Books
I don't really have a favorite movie, I don't watch a lot television but for sure, every now and then, I love to be on a cozy couch, with a blanket and a good movie and something to nibble ;-) Belgian chocolate for example!
I have always been reading a lot. the last 3 years I read a lot of books in English and Spanish to practice. I enjoy very much reading. all kind of books.
Music : I love all kind of music, loving the 80's and 90's. I have always had phases where I love a song and play it over and over again.
