ABOUT ME
In 2010 i have lived in Quito, Ecuador for 6 months where I worked as a volunteer with vulnerable kids. Several travelers have surfed my couch in Quito. Then I traveled 4 months around South America where I surfed several couches. Back in Belgium I am now living in Mechelen and I want to continue hosting and surfing as I find this concept amazing, fun and enriching! If I am home I will open my door for you and show you around in my little but beautiful town. If you allow me to surf your couch during my travels (and I do LOVE to travel adventurously) I'll be very gratefull. I am a clean and wellbehaved woman and I will always respect the host rules. I expect the same from my guests.
I am young, honest & direct, openminded, active, free & passionate. A cozy chat by a delicious (selfmade) diner and a glass of wine, an adventureous mountain hike, a cultural tour, enjoying the silence of nature or a wild salsa party & a mojito...I am your friend!!
PHILOSOPHY
If you don't like my fire, then don't come around, because I'm gonna burn one down...
Enjoy, explore, discover, meet and open up: NOW!!!
ACTION!! Standing still is going backwards.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I can be regularly on business trip but when I am home you are welcome to surf my couch and I can show you around or give you tips on what to visit. If I accept your request I will make sure we can spend time with each other because CS is about sharing! If you are just looking for a free place to stay, I will not accept your request.
