CURRENT MISSION

Why be boring, while you can be exploring!

ABOUT ME

Describing yourself is always tricky.
I am curious, talkative, energetic and stubborn, although I sometimes change my mind, mood and plans quickly. I easily attach to other people. I don't like to be inside the house all day... there's too much to do outside!

PHILOSOPHY

Er was eens een kaasboer uit Gouda;
Die zat rond de tafel zijn vrouw na.
Maar zij riep heel vief:
"Alles is relatief!
Als ik harder ren, zit ik jou na."
(Roald Dahl)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I study and share a house with a few friends in Leuven. My room is too small to host people, but I'm always in for a walk around the city and some coffee. Just ask me. Leuven is small but beautiful.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed some couches in Paris with a friend, before I had my own CS account. Now I have a CS account myself so hello world, here I come.

Intereses

Music, literature, arts, history, different cultures... The world. I find it wonderfull and frustrating at the same time that it is too big and varied to discover all of it during the one life we get to live and love.

Algo increíble que he hecho

From all countries I've seen, I loved Morocco the best. I keep returning there and want to live there once, seriously.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Besides enthusiasm and optimism, I can't think of something I can teach you... But I am definately willing to be teached by others!
