Overview
About Me
I am a very curious and open minded person. I love getting to know new people, cultures and places.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I used to do couch surfing some years ago, had very nice experiences and would love to try it again! I love travelling, discovering new cultures and new people.
Interests
I work for a progressive flemish publishing house that publishes non-fiction books, and besides that I am active in politics (behind the scenes), before I worked in the area of development cooperation. I love music, especially when it sounds exotic and/or funky, other cultures and travelling of course.

Music, Movies, and Books
Exotic/funky/bluesy music, books of course (I work for a publishing company), movies (although I mostly rely my boyfriend's knowledge ;))
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Hard to chose... Entering a gold mine in Guatemala in a kind of clandestine way, hiking in the impressive Simien mountains of Ethiopia, visiting the Uyuni salt flats of Bolivia, scuba diving in the Carribean sea, doing a safari in Botswana, participating in a world festival of democratic youth in South Africa, or just sitting around a camp fire with some good friends and talking about the universe.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I have a wonderful boyfriend living with me and mostly travelling together with :)
