I'm a french midwife and I graduated last year. Then after working few months in Belgium I traveled by my own during 6 months in south-east Asia and New Caledonia*. Then back to Brussel where we just moved-in with my boyfriend (Timo de la Salle, you can find him on couchsurfing).

I love meeting new people, I'm open-minded, and I love discovering new things, new places, new ways of living, of thinking,...

!! Read my full profile before asking a request to stay!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I stayed in people's place when I was traveling, now it's my turn to host people ;)

I think it's a very interesting way of traveling: you don't stay in a hotel room alone, you meet directly people from the place you're visiting. It's a great way to make new friends, see things you wouldn't have even thought about. ;)

Interests

It's hard to summer my interests, and I love when somebody shares his own passions!

If you read this section, it means that you want to really get to know people and that you are not looking only for free accomodation. You can say the secret word "DARIO" in your request, and I'll know that you read my profile :)

!!! If you don't say "Dario" in your request, it means that you didn't read my profile or send me a pre-writed message, so I will automatically deny your request!!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I'm old-fashioned for that, I mostly listen to 60's-70's-80's songs on my vinyls (The Beatles, Led Zepplin, Lou Reed, Bob Dylan, Queen, The Animals, The Who, Dire Straits,...). But I kinda enjoy most of kind of music: rock, pop, reggae, class jazz, chill, hip hop, dub, sometimes commercial (eh, not everything is bad in commercial music),... Artists I have in mind: Ratatat, Muse, Kaleo, Awolnation, Cocoon, Arcade Fire, Grammatik,...

Books: I used to read a lot of books! Now I don't have so much time because of my studies but I love Werber, E-E Schmitt, Nothomb, and some unknown authors... I also recently discovered M. Ricard and his books about buddhism and right now I'm in a phase where a read a lot about meditation, non violence, etc...

Movies: I like Burton, Wachowski, Tarantino... I like mind-fuck movies, and strange-but cute- movies (In Time, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, Hasta La Vista for example). If a movie is about traveling there's a big chance that I love it (Life of Pie, Into The Wild and others). I really enjoy committed movies (Harvey Milk, Welcome, Human)
I also like series (Marvel's, Sherlocks, Black Mirror, New Girl, Sense 8 Community,... and so many others!). Yeah, I used to be a binge watcher...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I carry Dario, a rubber duck, during every trip I do since I started to travel about 6 years ago. And I only lost it once.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook, talk about my job and feminism if you want to know more about it, share my interrests, movies and book references, discussions about politics, medias, cultures, meditation, travels and other subjects!

I lived in Brussel during 4 years for my studies so I know a little the town and can show you around, but I still have a lot to discover!

I would love to learn a new language, a least few words of whatever you speak :)

Oh and if you know how to cook it can be great to discover your favorite meal!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Travel tips, smiles, recipes and meals, debates, discovering new musics,... And show you a little of my Brussel.

If you want to be host, please send a request (with the secret word you can find in my description!) and describe yourself, say why you are here, why me, etc...
