Hi guys

My name is Tim, currently living in Antwerp (Belgium) and in love with travelling.
I love having a good time and meeting new people and hearing new stories about peoples' lives and sharing mine as well. I'm easy going and open-minded.

I would love to see as much of the world as possible because I'm not made to live and die in Antwerp

Get to know me, peace!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people and I like to travel like a local. I want to eat the local food, sleep in a locals' house and just live with them. I mostly use hostels to sleep at and meet people. But I heard loads of good things about Coachsurfing and I'm in for the adventure!

Interests

To begin with music, this one of my most favorite activities. I collect vinyl so I love spending time in a music store finding the right vinyl. I mostly collect jazz and reggae vinyls. I've started to play saxophone in september 2016

I love spending time with friends, sharing ideas/thoughts and just enjoying life.

As for sports, I love surfing, but still quite new to it. You could call me a professional foamboarder. But this year I hope to improve my skills. I love hiking as well, nothing better than walking through nature and setting up a tent to sleep in, cooking some food and at night watching the stars.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love different types of music:
-Jazz: Dexter Gordon, Chet Baker, Ben Webster, Buddy Tate, Paul Desmond, Stan Getz, ..
-Hip Hop: Masta Ace, Kev Brown, A Tribe Called Quest, Wu Tang, Gang Starr, ...
-Relaxing music: Jack Johnson, Edo Lee, Bonobo, Alpha Mist, Norah Jones, ..
Reggae, Goa, Spiritual music,..
And lots and lots more !

Favorite movie:
Cliché but Pulp Fiction, I love movies with plot twits and movies that really make you think. Unlike Pulp Fiction where you just laugh with all the random conversations and funny scenes. My favorite actors are Denzel Washington and Leonardo Di Caprio

Favorite books:
I'm currently reading 'Guns, germs and steel' it's a book about society with a critical point of view. Also read 'the Alchemist' and a couple books of the Dalai Lama. I love to read book about spirituality and how to look at life differently.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing things I've ever done is watching at the stars in the Moroccan desert. I was backpacking and took a camel ride into the desert, watched shooting stars and the galaxy on a sand dune. After that I slept in a nomad tent. I've never seen so many stars before.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my thoughts on the world. I love to talk with new people and see how they think. I would like to share some of the Belgium habits and look at the cultural differences. But at the end we're all human. If you like relaxing music, I can probably give you some new names you've never heard of.

But most important I would just like to get to know you and have a good time.
