ABOUT ME

Hi,
my name is Lien. I live in Antwerp, a nice city in Belgium!

My biggest passions are dance, theatre and music. That's what my life is about and what I'm living for.

Next to that I like to meet people, to speak with people and share stories. As a volunteer I went in 2010 to Felsöpetény (Hungary) to work in an orphanage which I really enjoyed. I worked as a nanny in France and in 2013 I was teacher in School of Performing Arts Kathmandu in Nepal, which was one of the greatest times of my life. I'd like to discover new cultures, ways of life and new philosophies. I believe this opens your mind, gives you new view and new ideas to make what I make and do what I do.

PHILOSOPHY

If you are not criticized, you may not be doing much.

If dancing were any easier it would be called football.

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful. (Herman Cain)

A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. (Winston Churchill)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm often traveling alone, but I'd like to meet people on my trips. I like to hear what's nice in the neighborhood, to get to know new people and have a good time!
