Hi, I'm a graduated photographer and work parttime as an art teacher. In my free time I love to explore new places, do sports, work on my photography or do anything creative.
I went on 2 solo roadtrips in 2021 and 2022. Now I have a job but I need to go explore whenever possible. In Kortrijk I live in a tiny house fully off grid with a view on the flanders fields.

I'm a respectful calm person who likes to have interesting conversations with new people but sometimes also has the need to have some alone time 😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When you're travelling, the best way to get to know a place is by a local or to share with another travel soul.

Interests

Modern art is my biggest interest. All art forms (painting, photography, music, film, dance...). I love to stay active and to be creative. I play a little electric drum myself and love to dance, go to concerts and movie theaters. In nature I find peace.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love a psychologic drama story.
Friends, Game of Thrones and The Office I can watch on repeat.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Slept in my car on top of a mountain in Italy, took a sunrise mountain hike in Sri Lanka, danced with locals in Senegal, saw new years fireworks on a rooftop in Athens, swom in the ocean with sunrise in France...

Teach, Learn, Share

It's always nice to add some new amazing music to my playlist I hear from other couchsurfers.
I love to captures the faces of new kind people or great nature spots on my camera.
