About Me

I believe I can describe myself as an energetic and social twentysomething that easily adapts to a given situation. I love spontaneous and unplanned moments. I've been managing a campsite in Belgium for the last few summers, while getting away to warmer climates in the wintertime.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, travel is all about meeting the right people at the right places. I believe that staying with a couchsurf host can give a much richer and local experience than for example staying at a hostel. The bond between a host and surfer is also different.

Interests

Broad range of interests such as travelling, going out with friends, movies and music concerts/festivals.

Music, Movies, and Books

I think I can safely say I have a pretty broad taste of music; some of my favorite artists are Radiohead, Kendrick Lamar, Metallica, Bob Marley, Netsky, Nas,... So yeah, pretty much everything. :)

Some of my favorite directors are Paul Thomas Anderson, Wes Anderson, Tarantino, Charlie Kaufman, Darren Aronofsky, etc.

I'm not that much of a reader, should definitely do something about that! Last book I read was ''The curious incident of the dog in the night-time" by Mark Haddon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting the Palenque ruins in the midst of the jungle was one of the countless highlights of our trip through Central America. Travelling throughout South East Asia for three months by myself was truly amazing and inspiring and got me forever infected with the travel bug.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some help wherever it's needed! Not afraid to get my hands dirty.
