About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Plan my trip in bicycle around the american continent.

ABOUT ME

I'm belgian, i'm 24. If i would have to make a description about myself i would say i'm an adventurer. I like extreme sports, and extreme situations. I love the challenges. I enjoy diving, trekking, cycling and i have a passion for nature conservation. I love meeting people from different cultures as well as learning new things. I have already travelled "a lot" (not enough for me, but it is the opinion of my family) . I'm really open-minded and a i'm very relax.

PHILOSOPHY

Appreciate life each second - you only have one chance at it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience was in Brisbane and it was a very good experience. I like couchsurfing because it allows the traveller to live with local people. Unfortunately, I have "Never" host someone in my house through couchsurfing for the reason that i am never in my country ^^ I promise that from september i can host some people until May 2015 :)

Interests

Fascinated by adventure, exploration and the beauty of our earth, I feel responsible for its protection. Nowadays, the preservation of our planet is a major concern. It is not necessary to be pro-ecologist for being aware that there is an urge for change.

Since my engagement in the professional world for the Belgian NGO €œMiel Maya€ in Bolivia, I am also concerned about issues of unfairness all around the world. Disparities between poor and riches keep increasing due to the commercial and industrial capitalism of our actual society.

i have also some interests in travelling, diving, moutain bike, extreme sports,trekking, mountain climbing, learning languages.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a market analysis in Bolivia about the exportation possibilities of Bolivian honey to Europe with the fair trade label. I met a lot of producers in amazing natural reserve. I lived with them and their families. I got a fantastic human and professional experience.
