I grew up in Belgium and after my education, I decided to leave the country behind, at least for some time. 22 years seemed like enough time spent in two square meters. I have lived in India and Prague and am currently living in Dublin with my boyfriend and a Swiss friend.

My I's: I love cooking, but even more so eating and drinking. I enjoy wandering, walking, hiking, running - I feel experiences are usually better and more grounded on foot. I'm a sucker for television and movies, it's my lazy and guilty pleasure.

Footnotes: whiskey, shoes, dancing, romance, pubs, chocolate, Punjab, dogs, photos.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is no better way of traveling than connecting with people that are open to host you, not as a tourist, but as an interesting person and potential new friend. I have absolutely loved hosting friends and strangers and in turn, I have made friends myself by surfing their couches. What's better than that?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I hiked for hours uphill, feeling warm and heavy, finally reaching the top and then camping there, on a mountain in North India. We fell asleep as soon as we hit the grass, while the sun was going down. I have never felt so content. It was the best people in the best place and there was nothing else.

Teach, Learn, Share

The thing about couchsurfing, backpacking, traveling, is that you share a large part of your experience abroad with people you might not have met at all otherwise . You learn on the way. I just enjoy learning about you, your life, your habits and your stay in whichever place you're staying in.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A homecooked meal and not too bad company to share it with.
