CURRENT MISSION

studying to find a better job in coherence with my thoughts

Housemates: Julien is doing a master international politics at the Ghent University and Maxim is doing a bachelor in Social Work at the Artevelde Hogeschool.
ABOUT ME

I'm full of projects and travels in mind! But I'm first making a complementary year of study.
I try to see the positive side of life in everything and at everytime. I appreciate to meet and get to know new people, be it by travelling or in my home country.
I like to experience true human relationships, sometimes as simple as they might seem: having a drink, playing a game together, going to a concert, having a walk, laughing, ... A few is enough to be happy :)

Housemates: Approve of Fred's way of life and try to be even more successful at it. Although we consider having a drink the ultimate way to experience true human relationships.

PHILOSOPHY

The world can be as beautifull as you're ready to see it

Housmates:
Maxim: Pase lo que pase, sea lo que sea!
Julien: Le couer se brise ou se bronze.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I discovered couchsurfing by travelling far away from home and willing to meet local people to discover how they were feeling in their own country. For the same reason i like to host people from other sides, cause we're different but share the same willingness to bite life as much as we can.
CS is also a free way to travell, and more than that, an alternative way to do it, which has a lot advantages.

Housemates: Maxim: I have never participated in the 'official' couchsurfing. I have slept on couches with friends in different countries which was very nice! I'm eager to have my first real couchsurfingtrip or host one trough this site.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have been hosted in Montreal (Canada), Marseille, Montpellier (France), São Paulo and Curitiba (Brazil). I discovered how great it was to be abroad and not feeling just a tourist!
Have host in my shared student habitation in Louvain-la-Neuve and always took lot of pleasure to share my local habits with couch people :)
