CURRENT MISSION

Finding my energy

ABOUT ME

Sometimes I still wonder if I'm still a 6y old, based on my over-enthousiasm at times. I'm very fond of life and I'm really trying to live it. Not in a Richard Branson-kind-of-way but there are other ways I think :) I try to get the most out of the things I do: I love talking to people from all over the world, lose myself to music, discover a new bar, enjoy the richness of food and drinks, get too much into my work, I have a craving for travelling without thinking but it deos not always turn out that way (maybe that is for the best).

I enjoy setting up and going to all kinds of events with my friends, whether its a picnic, an evening gig or a roadtrip doesn't matter. I'm a type of person who likes to be around people and observe them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to meet up with the locals and surfers. I also love to organise events. Whether its a game of pool, a food event (yes please! food fan!), a movie, a theme night, a coffee, whatever :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

you know, you live by good experience so and CS is one of those. It's amazing to get in touch with so many different people.
When I previously lived in Brugge I hosted quite a lot of people and I found it great to get into all kinds of adventures with them.
I traveled a little bit through southeast asia in 2014 and spend a lot of my time with ppl from couchsurfing, it reaaaally added to the experience :)

Interests

I like to do all kinds of sports, although I've never fully went through with one.

I like watching movies that make you think, documentaries, as well as lay-back movies.

5years ago or so I got listen to a track from blues artist Taj Mahal and since than I started realising I really enjoy listening to the older tunes :) It started of with blues and slowly I also got interested in swing, soul, classic rock. I'd also love to learn to dance swing, rock 'n roll or lindy hop.
Hence I also like artist who try to bring back that old sound. But actually I also like balkan music, some metal, jazz and some elektro.

I also like catching gigs in a bar or concerthall, and sometimes a festival.

And, oh, food! Though I'm not really a cook (I can, but nothing special, I think) I just really love eating and trying out new food, cooking in group.

and, well, yea, travelling of course :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Taste so many different foods, love my 2 little nieces, buying a flat in brugge, doing pretty alright in my job, travelling by myself in southeast asia

Teach, Learn, Share

I took a couple of capoeira classes and I liked it actually. So if you know capoeira, I'm all eyes.

I'd like to improve my french

I wanna participate in the Budapest-Bamako amateur african rally!! Although this is not something you can learn (well, atleast not while surfing ... I guess) it would be so cool to find someone to do this with.
