About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discovering the world from the inside

ABOUT ME

I try to live life to the fullest, in all honesty. Making other people enjoy themselves is what makes me happy.

I'm a down to earth person (with my head in the clouds) who really knows herself. I adore learning new things, new people, new skills, new places, new experiences.

Things I absolutely love are nature, sports, interesting people and conversations.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is your own. Everyday is a new chance to start over and to make your life as you deserve it. Regret only things you tried.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

During the week I don't have a lot of time, but I can meet in the evening.
During the weekend I have more free time, which we can spend together if you would like to.
I'm not very keen on 'showing people around'. Meeting up with my friends, going for a walk or chatting with a cup of tea will probably be how we spend time together.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A few years ago I made a road trip in Greece, where I experienced CS for the first time. It was a wonderful trip and I met some amazing people who were so kind to host me and my sister.
We spent quite some time with all of them, as travelling for me is mostly talking to locals and to listen to what they can teach you about the history, present and past of their country.
After this, I spent one year of full time hosting people from around the world.

I prefer to host people that have a positive attitude and who love meaningful conversations.

Interests

If I would have to choose one thing, it would be waking up in the weekend during Autumn, going to the forest for a long walk. Returning in the evening, meeting with friends and enjoy the warmth of food, friends and fire.

In more general that would be : nature, being happy, watching series, cooking, sports (running, swimming, hiking, horseback riding), reading, laughing, talking.

Besides this, I am more than passionate about healthy food; and the link with science. How can we re-energize our society, and make people healthier again - all through food. This is my new life goal, that gets me up in the morning.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking a part of the Skye trail (Scotland) in February, with only a backpack and a tent. Landscapes, wilderness, perfect beauty.

Coming up : from Vladivostok (RU) to Mechelen (BE) by train.
