About Me

Young Belgian guy caught by a fever to travel around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best experience of visiting a country in my personal opion is when you are having contact with some locals.
On the other side I do love the idea of couchsurfing as an easy way to increase the amount of love between people and cultures.
