About Me

I'm a Belgian student, living near Antwerp. Last year I graduated as a master in Animationfilm. Currently I'm continuing my education with a master in communication sciences. In my spare time I work as a photographer and graphic designer, although I would like to develop my skills as a conceptual artist. I'm not really sure what I will become. Still finding my way, exploring the world, studying and doing things that interest or challenge me...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was mainly curious. I like traveling, usually I'm booking a bed in a hostel. Maybe couchsurfing is a nice way to meet some new people at the places I'm visiting.

Also, I don't mind being a guide in some major Belgian cities. In most of them, I know my way around.

Music, Movies, and Books

How long can this list be?

Music
Most of them is more like garage/poppunk I think. Not too sure, genres aren't my best thing. Some examples: Bleached - King Tuff - Weezer - Ramones - Descendents - AntiFlag - The Menzingers - Beach Slang - The Hellacopters - Off with their heads - ...

Movies
I am not too fond of the typical action-blockbusters, although some of them are nice eyecandy (visual effects). Some films I really enjoyed are: Boyhood - Léon the professional - Pan's Labyrinth - The Book of life - Pulp Fiction - The Big Lebowski - Cloudy with a chance of meatballs - 12 monkeys - Elephant - The Nightmare before christmas - V for Vendetta - Natural born killers - 1408 - The Artist - Delicatessen - Edward Scissorhands - Black Swan - Amélie Poulain - Requiem for a dream - Seven - Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind - Taxi Driver - ...

Books
Lately I haven't been reading too much, should do this more often.
Most recent one that I have read was House of Cards, written by Danielewski.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This is difficult. I don't have an extreme highlight in my life yet I think. Just a lot of tiny precious moments.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been working as a professional photographer for 6 years now, I can share my skills and knowledge with you. Same goes for film and drawing.

When it comes to Belgium I could guide you around (just don't ask me to recommend any beer, I'm not good with that, you'll have to try what you like most yourself haha)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm curious and open minded, don't have too much to offer that I can think of. But I won't be annoying, that for sure :)

Countries I’ve Visited

Bulgaria, Denmark, France, Germany, Iceland, Italy, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, Spain, Turkey
