ABOUT ME

A harmless creature (I think), curious for what's out there.

I spend my time making music, to wander around, to look, to listen and trying not to forget what struck me. My favorite liquit is coffee and I like to watch people who watch historical buildings.

I just quitted my job at the bakery to travel and to spend more time in my artstudio where I make music, experimental video's and drawings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to surf and to host. My house is a come and go of people already, I share it with three lovely people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a great CS experience in Romania this year!

Most of the time I travel to people I already know or with people that know people. So I might be quite new to CS, I am familiar with sleeping on couches :)

When I was 18 I did an AFS exchange in Finland. This really changed my view on the world. I'll never forget the people who took care of me then and the warmth of their home.
