PHILOSOPHY

"Non quid sed quemadmodum feras, interest !" - I find that I'm getting along with people no matter what they experienced, which religion or race they have, as long as they live their lives enthusiastically and harness strong self confidence within themselves.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in Leuven with my fiancée. We have a guest room, as well as a couch in the living room that opens to a bed.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met another couchsurfer briefly in the UK, just for a chat and a walk through town. It was great to hang out with Sanda and her friends in Croatia. Back when I was living in Leuven, I hosted several couchsurfers.

In other travels, I've stayed with a family in Lithuania, lived a year in Switzerland, helped to rebuild a children's school in Romania and backpacked around Indonesia in 2007.
