About Me

ABOUT ME

IMPORANT: Couch not available at the moment because I'm out traveling, will be back mid december

I'm 32 years old, am born in Bruges and live in the wonderful city of Ghent.
I enjoy showing people around and meet up with tourists and expats as it gives me a feeling of traveling while at home.

I work freelance so I have a fluctuating scedule, sometimes i have alot of free time to show people around, other times i'd be too busy. But just ask me ;)

good friend: "Kat goes from innocent looking flower girl to ass-kicking ninja and back in 10 seconds'

Sister: "Kat is a penguin and loves chocolate chip cookies" (euhm...yeah...)

PHILOSOPHY

Audentes fortuna iuvat, fortune favours the bold.

Try to get yourself out of your comfort zone, as that is the place where the magic happens.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been on here for a long time mainly as a spectator, but am willing to participate more actively.

I have a sofa that fits one person, but I can host one more if you bring your own sleeping matress

I'm mostly open to last minute requests. Requests asked longtime in advance are more difficult for me to plan because I live week to week. I don't always know what I'll be doing next month or where I will be.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At this moment i have a tomato plant with a tomato on it. A real tomato. I took care of a plant and it didn't die. That's new to me and pretty special :p
But i guess things like hanggliding over Rio de Janeiro and diving in the most other-worldlike marine area in the Phillipines while staying with the locals comes a nice second to my tomato...
