Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Surviving a master degree and the void that follows
ABOUT ME
I'm an illustration and screen-printing student, on my way to the real world. I have a geeky toy collection and library, I'm interested in all forms of pop-culture, discovering new things and sharing my favourites. I love robots, walking around the city, and quoting obscure shows. And food.
PHILOSOPHY
Meh, philosophy. Purely abstract constructs hold little interest for me. Philosophy via storytelling is my jam.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've hosted several surfers in Brussels via my roomate, and now I'm taking a flight of my own!
Note : what you may think is a R2D2 trashcan in my living room is in fact an R2D2 collectible on display. Not the trashcan you're looking for. Move along!
Interests
Movies, TV Shows, exhibitions, anything pop-culture related, Sci-fi related or adjacent. Comic books and illustration, pretty pictures really. Books, pretty books, the making of books, illustration books.
Screenprinting and the DIY book/fanzine scene.
Music too, attending concerts and discovering new bands, sharing my favourites...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Landing in a tiny airport in Koh Samui, where everything to the last display screen is made of wood. Pretty, reddish, polished wood.
Hair on Broadway.
Also almost getting through to Platform 9 3/4. I was this close.
Once I hugged a Dalek.
