About Me

To describe oneself is often complicated. To discover, too. Music takes a very important space in my life. Arts, overall. In short, I dream about being a global citizen: is just that I'm fully into learning, exploring and meeting new people and places!

Other than that, did you know that instead of looking up into the sky, we’re actually gazing down into the infinite cosmic abyss, with only gravity holding us to the surface of the earth? Anyway, If not in Belgium, I'm a bird-of-passage in your country... Let's gaze together, mate!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After the first chance I had to solo trip, I realized that traveling is all about the people I meet on the journey. Further more than this natural desire and curiosity of getting to know every inch of the planet, I want to connect with both local and wanderer souls around, and then meassure my trips in buddies instead than in miles.

It's a fact that an intense friendship of few days can last a lifetime, so I want to make friends from all over the world, traveling everywhere -just like Phileas Fogg- with my violoncello, always looking for some inspiration. There's so much to learn and live and not enough time – no matter how cliché it actually sounds, ha!

Do you remember that movie, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty? I'm kinda Walter. For now, just escaping into a series of romantic fantasies, each spurred on by some mundane reality.
