About Me

hey there,
Im just back in europe for a wile after living on my island key west for 5 years ( florida usa)

Sadly i had to come back to belgium after my dad passed away, but i have no idea how long i will make it down here!

Planning to move back to the states, or maybe start something small in thailand... time will tell...

On the other side, i missed having cheap flights and a lot of airports around.
Plus all my friends i can meet up with again.

so for sure im not going to be locked up down here! Last minutes, road trips, and weekends aways... here i come!

ABOUT ME... i love to travel, or better... i love to work between traveling haha, every 2 days of holiday i had to be on a plane! or i was looking for some adventures in places i did not see yet. i like being on the road, get happily lost somewhere, see new things and meet new people. i lived in Belgium, Spain, Latvia, Thailand, costa rica, Israel and now for the last 5 years in the usa.

i had a pretty hard job, for way to many years in Belgium. So it was time for me to move on, and find my happiness again, so I did... And i ended up in key west, a little island 4 hours from Miami. I worked for fury water adventures. The best job you can do on a island i guess...

I enjoy real and original people, who are not afraid to show who they are...
i love the beach life, the sun, the ocean... everything that we don't really have in Belgium haha

i like to be free, feel free...I enjoy people around me but I have no problem to travel on my own... this way you see the world on a totally different way...

i have a american dog, drive a italian motorcycle, and i have tattoo's from all over the world :) , im always open to learn new things and i love to hear your travel story's.

PHILOSOPHY

keep moving and everything will be ok...
