Overview
About Me
Hey ! I am a student in the civil engineering at Ghent University. I like to travel a lot and I am a hitchhiker. I really like to meet people from different nationalities and show them around in Ghent.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
First of all because I want to couchsurf myself. The best way to learn different countries is meeting up with locals! Also I like to meet new people! It is also a good way to train my english and to meet knew people and cultures.
Interests
I am interested in different cultures and science. In my free time I spend a lot of time in the scouting where i am a leader of the oldest group. I like to test my limits in everything I do.

Music, Movies, and Books
I am a man of every kind of music en movies as long as it has a meaning. For example i really hate drum and base. I don't read allot but i am interested in literature! My favorite music and movie is linked with each other. It is the Belgium movie " broken circle breakdown" and its music !
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
There are lot's of amazing things i have done. But the best was a few years i go when I was in Chile. We traveled to the most south point of the country to go kayaking in a glacier. The lake and the ice where the most astounding things i ever saw in my hole life !
