About Me
I'm a 24 year old girl whose trying to see the world.
On March 20th I was born in Kortrijk, Belgium. Since than i've lived with my three older brothers and my parents in Lauwe, Belgium.
At the age of four I developed a love for basketball and have been playing the sport ever since.
I graduated college as an Event Planner, Wedding Planner.
Right now I'm working at a company that sells and rents RV's.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Just like everyone else, I like to meet new people who can tell you/teach you things about their city that you don't find on the internet.
When I go to new places, ofcourse I'd like to see the touristic eye-catchers but besides those I want to see what citizins love about their hometown.
Also, not going to lie, it's a great way to save money!

Music, Movies, and Books
As far as music goes I'm a big fan of old school R&B, pop and soul.
My range in movies varies day by day. One day I'll like to sob to a romantic movie such as Dear John, Pretty Woman or The Notebook. Other days I'll only want action movies or thrillers.
The Godfather, Fast and the Furious #, Oceans Eleven, Point Break, Kill Bill, Runaway Bride, American Pie, Pearl Harbor, The Hunger Games.... You name it I'll probably love it.
One guilty pleasure I have is my love for Christmas movies such as Home Alone, How the Grinch stole Christmas, Christmas with the Kranks... What can I say... I love Christmas.
I'm not much of a reader. But when I do, I like to read the Harry Potters, Hunger Games, Divergent or anything Nicolas Sparks wrote.
Series I'm watching : Orphan Black, Breaking Bad, Orange is the new Black....
Series I can't get enough of: One Tree Hill (will forever be my favorite) , Scandal, How To Get Away With Murder....
Besides watching series I also like to watch NBA games. #gobulls!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In my last year of college I had the opportunity to go on an exchange to Canada and it has been by far the most amazing thing I've ever done.
As a kid I've always dreamt of going to the United States and Canada and now that dream came true.
I studied in tourism and got to know a lot more of tourism in Canada, more particularly Trois-Rivières, Québec.
While staying there I travelled to Montreal, Québec, Toronto, New York and Boston.
It definitely helped grow my interest in travelling and discovering new places all over the world.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I haven't travelled that much yet so crazy stories are rare, but I can teach you maybe a new language, knowledge about planning parties, weddings, what to look for when renting an RV, tell you stories about Europe's different cultures.
I've been a kids entertainer for five years, so I know a thing or two about being creative in kids games.
If you'd like, I'll cook you a mean spaghetti and teach you some basketball moves ;)
