Overview
About Me
Always looking for fun and spice in my live, I love challenges and adventure. I like to fight for what I want because that makes the victory even sweeter :) Biggest challenge of the moment: beeing an engineer! I am a sportive, smiling, openminded and loyal person. My mission: enjoying life, giving the best of myself, for me and for others, working hard, play HARDER!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I began to travel on my own one year ago and the "travelling disease" got me! Doctors say that it's uncurable... haha. Anyway, I really enjoyed it, I had good experiences with people, I like meeting them, sharing ideas and experiences, learning their language or their skills, sharing mine. I had my first couchsurfing experience in February in Chile and it was amazing! Everything that I like! My host was so kind and I learned a lot about the city, the specialities, where to go out, etc. Travelling like a local is definitely the way I wish to travel from now on!
Interests
Favourite sports: running, tennis, swimming, dancing, watching Euro 2016 ( come on Belgian Red Devils!!!)
Food! (my mother is Italian she makes really good dishes and they say it's hereditary :D). Actually I like every kind of food and discovering other specialities is for me the best!
Volunteering: Last year I volunteered in an irrigation project in Bolivia. It has its good and its bad sides.. We could talk about it.
Travelling and meeting new people, openning my mind.
Have fun with friends, go out, dance like nobody is watching!
