About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

lots of hospitality

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i was lucky to be hosted by a number of great people. i'm mostly a solo traveller, happy to stroll around by myself but also to hang out and hear the stories of the people and places i visit.

when hosting in brussels i can't promise to be around much, but if i'm on an easy schedule i'll be happy to show you around at least the neighbourhood and defenitly give you a map and some ideas on spots in town to visit or chill at.

my place in brussels is in a diverse neighbourhood, close to a bunch of bars, cafés and cultural hubs, with a direct bus line to the city centre in front of the door (~15min). at the same time it's a good spot to retire to with a lake just 50m away, a guitar, piano and an oud at home. there's a sofa and a sofa bed so i can host up to 3 people.
