About Me

I am a gardening fanatic, at the moment studying organic agriculture. My mission is to start a CSA farm somewhere in Belgium.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been surfing the waves of couchsurfing in the past, and it's always been good to me. My couch hasn 't seen surfers for a while, so I asked her and she 's keen on hosting again. So feel welcome.

I met a lot of interesting people through the CouchSurfing scheme. Had some unforgettable times with some of them.

Interests

Vegetable farming: learning more about how the soil works and how plants can grow in it.
When I find the time in weekends I like to go rock climbing in Freyr (the Ardennes).
I like discovering new music and enjoy little music festivals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every seed I plant is amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Get to know the true you. Whether you find you traveling the world or your mind, it is the most beautiful experience one can ever have.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A simple couch in a not-so-tidy apartment in Lovenjoel, at about 5km from the centre of Leuven. You can use my kitchen, play the guitar, listen to music... If I have the time I 'd like to show you around in Leuven, or visit the field where I am working. Or maybe go climbing in the hall or in Freyr.
