About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Strength, Courage and Wisdom

ABOUT ME

Due to my own ethnicity I already had the chance to travel several times to the Philippines. This has been an insightful experience to me. After six months of travelling with my friend Katrien I got to know the world a little better. Latin- and North-America have given me an experience I won't easily forget.

PHILOSOPHY

Be the change that you want to see in the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I both have the experience of being a couchsurfer, and hosting couch surfers. The nicest thing to experience was to meet people who can tell us more about the non-touristic places about their countries. My most interesting travels were interesting, because of the people I met and lived with. With whom you share life and not just touristic landscapes and monuments (although they can be nice too). If possible, I would like to exchange the favor.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Different experiences throughout Latin- and North-America, but also here in Belgium getting to know my own country better. They each had their own style, which kept it very interesting to continue our couch surfing. To all of them: THANK YOU!
