We are a family with a daughter born in 2019. My husband is originally from Jicaral in the Nicoya Peninsular in Costa Rica. I am from Belgium but I live in Costa Rica since 2012. We moved to Atenas in January 2021. I work as an IT analyst for a medical device company in Alajuela.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing since 2010 but I have been inactive when I was pregnant and when my daughter was a baby.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

-- IN BRUSSELS --

I mainly hosted (and surfed only once, when I was not yet of CS). I hosted from 1 to 7 nights. I know from the experience of my guests that you need at least 3 days in Brussels to enjoy the city.

Past guests from: China (1), Colombia (2), France (4), Kazakhstan (1), Moldova (1), Turkey (1), Romania (2), USA (California: 2)

--- IN JICARAL, COSTA RICA ---

Guests from: Argentina (1), Czech Republic (1), Spain (1), USA (California: 1, North Carolina: 1)

Interests

I play piano and viola since I am a kid. I currently play weekly with a friend in Atenas who plays violin.
I am also swimming several times per week. I am training for open water swimming at the sea.
