About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to explore the world now I'm still young. It would be perfect to do that by playing my music on concerts all over the world. Check www.vi.be/snowhites. peace&love.

ABOUT ME

I am known as somebody who can lighten up a group. Entertaining is what I like to do but I'm also into a good conversation. Candles, some red wine and endless cousy nights, hmm!
Together with my brother Bert we play in the pop-rockband SnoWhites(www.vi.be/snowhites).
We both write the music. I play the piano since age 5 but I play the guitar and drums (percussion!) too.

Everything is music:-)

PHILOSOPHY

My style? Keep on making people happy with music and my smile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have all the time in the world to show u our city, which is beautiful and cosy. Ghent is alive! Ancient culture (3th most authentic city in the world), student life, great music scene, food, chocolat, waffles, the Belgian beer,...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was in Istanbul May '08. Where I came for the first time in contact with the fenomenon CS. Unforgettable, certainly the 4 day trip to Marmaris with a rented bus, packed with CS'ers :-) In august I was in Slovenia for 14 days with a friend and his magnificent self made mobile home and in December I was on a 6 day rock 'n roll ride through Portugal with my best friend Tine. In June I went surfing with some friends on the waves of Fuerteventura :p
Nowadays I'm hosting.
Welcome!
