About Me

I love to travel and meet new people.

I've lived abroad and explored the world when I was a student. While studying I spent quite a lot of time in South America. Nowadays I still enjoy traveling. Bigger trips such as a round trip in Australia and a backpacking trip to Thailand and Myanmar, as well as ‘smaller’ trips and city trips in Europe and in my own Belgium.

I like to hang out with my friends at local bars or festivals, so feel free to tag along when you’re here. I am open minded and I’ll happily host anyone who wants to stay here for just 1 night or a couple of nights.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had some awesome couchsurfing experiences when I was traveling in South-America. I loved it when my hosts made me feel at home and showed me their home towns. I’d love to be that kind of host to people who visit my country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went rafting on the rio Petrohue in Chile, we jumped (we did not fall!)out of the boat and were just floating in that huge river, an impressive landscape, including vulcanos, surrounded us,... amazing!

Some other amazing things I've seen: Glacier Perito Moreno, Iguazu falls,the city Asunción seen from the sky while I was skydiving, the Great Barrier Reef, Bangkok, but also my dad's garden where he grows tomatoes and my mom's little garden with herbs and flowers right next to it :-)
