Hi!
I am a 22 year old Belgian guy, living in a beautiful city called Ghent. Just finished my studies in visual FX and 3D animation.
This year I am having a sabbatical, a year without me sitting behind a desk before I pursue a career in the videogame and animation industry. In this sabbatical I mainly work as a bartender to save up for the many travels I do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When travelling I sometimes feel that it's hard to find the cool places and things to do in a city.
The "top ten things to do in ... " on tripadvisor can be fun but are most of the time not what I look for.

Staying with a local is a nice way to know that you get the most of your trip! Either way through nice conversations or because someone will show you which way to go!

Interests

I am easily interested in a lot of things! My passions always seemed to have revolved around movement. Whether its designing animations, doing flips in circustraining or just looking up that perfect slope somewhere off-piste with my snowboard.

Music, Movies, and Books

Choosing a favourite movie, book or song sounds like choosing your favourite parent. Pretty much impossible.
So here is a list of the last ones I've seen/read/heard, that I really liked!

"The emperors new groove" by Disney :: Pure animation gold!

"Freakonomics" by Stephen J. Dubner and Steven Levitt :: An unexpected and funny way of explaining how the world works from an economists perspective.

"Notion" by Tash Sultana. :: It's playing through my headphones right now. Just watch her play the song, she is epic.
