I'd rather do this in person but here is a little bit about me.
I grew up in Belgium, played the violin since I was 8 years old. I always lived on the countryside so I love the outdoors, the nature and the non-rush feeling of the city. I went to university in Ghent, studied Psychology. I'm still studying, I'm in my second year of postgrad. I work as a therapist in a psychiatric hospital on the child department. I live in Ghent, in the city centre. I put a lot of flowers and plants in the house so that the outdoors is never to far away.
I'd like some culture once in a while, a play or a movie or visit a museam. I like different kind of sports, badminton, swimming, via ferrata, climbing, walking, fitness, cycling, dancing, kayaking,..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people, learn about their lives and how they think about life. I don't want to live in a fishbowl. You learn from the day you are born till the day you die.
