I work in Communication at HOGENT (University College Ghent). Before I started working, I was living abroad for my studies. Being back in Belgium, I do miss the international experience, so it would be great to keep on hosting and surfing every once in a while to meet up with travelers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Slept on a cliff in the cold open air... or at least tried to.
Anyway, the beautiful sunrise made up for the lack of sleep!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share our Belgian beer culture, perhaps a vegan meal and a good cup of tea. I could show you around the city of Ghent and introduce you to the nicest spots.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good Belgian beer from Brewery Het Anker, where I used to work when I still lived in Mechelen! :)
