Overview
About Me
Hello, hello,
I'm currently studying art in Brussels (Belgium), I'm in a house with 6 lovely flatmates. We already host really often friends and friends of friends but we love to meet new peoples. We also organise events in the basement such as small concerts, workshops, screenings with artists invited.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm already used to host peoples, and would like to extend the experience with strangers. In Brussels, we also often talk about small trips we would like to do together. And being on a budget, we'd love to find nice peoples to swap our flats with !
While I'm writing that, I'm thinking about going back to England, I would love to visit Scotland and Ireland as well. To meet great peoples, discover both cities and the various landscapes of the countryside .... (top wishes : seeing back friends in Manchester, visiting Derek Jarman's garden, Edinburgh, Bristol, Walking along the wild coast)
But I'm basically open to everything :)

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm very curious in general, but on an other level when it's about music ahah.
It can be any music genre, and even more the ones I don't understand !
Currently more into Bossa-Nova (spring is coming ahah), Post-punk, Shoegaze, Alternative, Breakcore/Jungle/DrumnBass, Spanish Pop from the 80's, oh and some good RNB classics.
It's a topic I love to discuss, and I love to discover a city through it music scene.
Btw, if you're interested, I'd be happy to make you suggestions about local events in Brussels.
Movies : (v recently) : Aftersun, The Blue Caftan ..
--> (...this from 2019) : Otherwise I recently enjoyed watching Cold War by Paweł Pawlikowski, Suc de Sindria by Irene Moray , First Love (Miike), Amer Beton, But I'm a Cheerleader ...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've been to a far right celebration day in Hungary (oddly very "familial", like at a Sunday fair but with nazis there and there) with queer-communist hungarian friends I just met.
Through many spontaneous and unpredictable situations I've ended in, this one seemed particularly confusing and unreal...
Teach, Learn, Share
Various knowledges mostly in the art-cultural field, photography, graphic/design softwares...
Also, I would love to share with you the culture I come from : historicaly, places to visit, plates to cook, traditions to experiment, and connections with good friends who could also host if you're intrigued.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Conversations, a breakfast with warm tea or coffee, good (but maybe not so good) food I guess ?
Some recommandations about what to do in the city, local spots we used to go ...
