About Me

CONTINUOUS MISSION

Finding my way around

ABOUT ME

In 2016, I traveled to Yucatan, Mexico for a scuba diving, marine-volunteering program and continued towards Scuba Instructor. I stayed for about 16 months. I followed a course for cave diving as the area near Tulum is the best place to do it.
I am currently on Crete, Greece at work.
I have been working as a software engineer before, mainly IBM and Java programming. I spent all my vacation days as much as possible outside of Belgium.

I want to meet people who can give another perspective to our life and who can show me around. Couchsurfing people are the best to fulfill this goal.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't let country borders block your way. They only exist on paper (and a Trump wall will not stop me).
