I am a Belgian guy who likes to drink beers with others and get to know those little cultural differences and similarities that are not only on the surface. I am into music, especially jazz, folk, ska and balkan. I play guitar and tried to learn the saxophone. Also playing boardgames I like a lot.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a friendly person and like to host friends in my home. I have done a lot of Training Courses and Youth Exchanges abroad where I have met a lot of great people. I'd like to meet new people from all over the world.
Now I have the possibility to host, I will :)
That is exactly why couch surfing sounds great.
