About Me

Hi folks!

I'm a 29 years old guy, very easy going, I love to talk about every possible subject, as well as cooking. I've studied engineering and business, but I also love to talk about philosophy, history, society in general and how the future should be. I'm 95% vegetarian, but when travelling I like to eat every kind of local plate.

I have a STRONG interest in practicing my Spanish.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to travel the world and meet the real people to see how they live and learn about their culture. For me, you don't know a country for real as long as you didn't go inside the kitchen of a local inhabitant.

Interests

I'm a big fan of craft beers, and I also brew beer myself. I love reading (books and a lot of newspapers, blogs), guitar and music in general, hiking, visual arts (painting, photography, Photoshop, ...). I also love to meet people, and confront our visions of the world and of the future.

Teach, Learn, Share

When I go to a foreign country, I always try to learn the language, so I would be very happy to practice it during my trip. I could teach you a few words of french, some guitar riffs, or a nice cooking recipe. We could share hour-long discussion about the way the world works and how to make it a better place.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to talk with you about my country, Belgium, our culture, our way of living and our variety of beer. I have a lot of fun story to share, and I could talk about any subject for hours, I'm very curious. I also love cooking and playing with children.
