ABOUT ME

(Profile is a little outdated, will update soon. To give you an Idea, I'm almost 29 sooo)

Hi, I'm Jan, my friends call me Jaaq :) I'm 24 years old and just finished my studies in Multimedia & Communications Technology this year. I did a 4 month internship in Prague at the Centre for Art & New Technologies, and during my stay I hosted over fifty CS'ers from over 15 countries! I love to travel. Last summer I went to Budapest (sziget festival); Venice, Morocco, and a bike trip to France.

PHILOSOPHY

Atheism, Hedonism. I believe that the beauty of life lies in conversation and the people around you.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I only hosted people so far when I was in Prague. I'm sad that it's already over but also excited that I can start surfing myself in the near future :) Currently I can host up to two people in my house in Gent.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

about 50 or 60 people stayed at my place during 4 months in Prague !
