I was born two weeks late and still I'm trying to catch up with the schedule of life. When asleep I'm not very talkative and probably rather boring. Let's meet up!
(Small footnote about the languages: I'm good in French and German, but fluent is an overstatement. You can't choose "decent" as an option though. I'm not actively studying them, so I can't choose "learning" either.)

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I joined CS beginning of 2012 when I was going to travel in Morocco and haven't regretted it even once ever since. I cannot overestimate the impact CS has had on my life, in a positive way!

Interessi

Travelling (obviously), drawing, illustration (my artwork can be seen at www.instagram.com/jellemeys/ ), writing, reading, hiking, culture, nature, art, people, cats, comics, (animated) films, kicking a ball with friends (far from talented though), watching cycle racing on lazy Sunday afternoons, going to theater, playing beach volley/cards/board games, politics, talking, listening (music or other people talking), bullshitting, going to the pub, the light of a low winter sun; There are few things that don't appeal to me, actually...

Musica, film e libri

Actually I'm not such a big fan of defining people by the books on their shelves or the tunes they like to hear, but I get the idea:

Books: Brave new world (Aldous Huxley), Perfume (Patrick Süskind), Watchmen (Alan Moore/Dave Gibbons), Freedom (Jonathan Franzen), Joe Speedboat (Tommy Wieringa), In Europe (Geert Mak), Norwegian Wood (Haruki Murakami), The misfortunates (Dimitri Verhulst), The Twits (Roald Dahl) and many, many more...

Music: Too much to choose from, there's a right tune for every moment, place or mood.

Films: Persepolis, Thank you for smoking, Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain, The Godfather trilogy, Chicken Run, das Leben der Anderen, American Beauty, das Experiment, Trainspotting, Requiem for a dream, Bad Lieutenant, Pulp Fiction, C'est arrivé prés de chez vous, Watership Down, Waltz with Bashir, Once upon a time in the west, A Clockwork Orange, and again, many, many more...

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I walked over 3000 km from Prague (Czech Republic) to Finisterre (Spain) and couchsurfed many nights along the way, meeting some of the most inspiring people around!

Insegna, impara, condividi

We'll see about that.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

My everlasting gratitude!
