I studied ecological engineering in Belgium, went on Erasmus to Sweden, did a ‘broadening year’ with courses from economics and political sciences, I went on a sabbatical year in Latin America and now I'm back in Belgium, teaching in a Waldorf school.

PHILOSOPHY
Be who you are. That’s the strongest version of yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love Couchsurfing for the personal experience, for the real encounters. Basic life. I love meeting people, and I deeply believe in a sharing society.

Interests

I’m very interested in geopolitics, alternative economies and systems, in people and their stories, in history, in the earth, and in life.

• education
• traveling
• sports
• life
• sustainability
• earth
• people and their stories

Music, Movies, and Books

I love classical music and cumbia but I think I like most kinds of music. I really like the movie "Gifted Mary" and the Belgian documentary "Tomorrow" and my favorite books are "Sapiens" by Yuval Noa Harari, "De meeste mensen deugen" by Rutger Bregman, and "Tegen verkiezingen" by David Van Reybrouck.
