Hello, I'm Laurent. I'm living in Brussels since 3 years. I begin to know well this city and some good places to discover.
I'm working as a graphic designer specialized in exhibition design. For my job, I have to travel in Belgium and in France in many museums.
I'm really curious, I like to discover new countries, new exhibition topics and more than other meet new people and share with them.
Sorry for my english, I do my best ! ;-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet people who live in the country I travel.
Many times when you are in a hotel you don't really meet people.
By sharing experiences, I think it's the best way to discover a new town, a new country.

Interests

Culture in general : exhibitions, concerts, theater.
I'm interested in comics books, I do some comics as amateur cartoonist.
I'm attached to nature (I grew up in the elsassian vignyards) I like going hiking, I often spent my holidays to go hiking in mountain (Alpes, Vosges, Corsica).
