About Me

Hi,

I'm a 27 year old Belgian girl traveling the world since January 2017. I come from a very small village somewhere in the high mountains (approx. 213m / 698 ft) of Belgium.

Holà

Soy una chica de Bélgica. Empecé mi viaje en enero de 2017. Aprendí el español en Medellín hace un par de meses.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe CS is an amazing way of seeing the inside of a place with the help of people who know it best, aka the local people.

I traveled in guesthouses and youth hostels most of time and I want to change the way I travel by sharing more with the people I encounter.

Una de las razones por las cuales estoy usando couchsurfing en Centroamérica es para practicar mi español. Una otra es que generalmente duermo en hostales pero no creo que es la mejor manera para conocer realmente a las personas. Me gustaría andar con otras personas que no son turistas.

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC
From Pink Floyd to Moderat, with groups such as Broods, Radiohead, Lost Frequencies, Jack Garratt, Kodaline, PETIT BISCUIT, and many more on the way.

MOVIES
Denis Villeneuve is one of my favorite director and I value actors such as Matthew McConaughey and Jake Gyllenhaal for the complexity of the roles they often interpret. I always love to discover new movies

Me considero una fanática de las películas, podría hablar sobre cualquier typo de película por horas
