I live in a small town at about 30 km from Leuven together with my boyfriend Wout. The nearest small city is Aarschot, at about 7 kms from where we live. People who will stay in Leuven or Brussels during the day and want to discover the nightlife overthere better don't contact us, because public transport between my small town and those big cities really sucks during the day and is not existing at night (and we're not really nightlife people neither). But we can offer you a nice evening at our place and in our neighbourhood :)
I can cook a vegetarian (or vegan if you like) meal for you, we don't have meat or fish in the house... but I can assure you vegetarian dishes taste great if I make them :)

We can offer you a king size bed in our guest room, food and a walk in the neighbourhood if we're free when you come (there are some nice small forests and moorland areas closeby).
But even if we're not completely free when you want to come, you are welcome to stay at our place. We can lend you a bike and a map if you want, so you have some freedom of movement :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To live abroad: a life changing experience
I also used to hitch hike a lot (it used to be my only means of transport, for short and long distances)

Teach, Learn, Share

Whatever you like: from languages or how to use a compass, to lace-making :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook vegetarian/vegan, have a drink/breakfast/dinner together, make a day trip in nature together, have filosofical or socio-political discussions... Whatever we both feel like.
I mostly don't go to bed too late: Waking up early is a refreshing experience! Although waking up too early is not refreshing at all :)
