I graduated as a high school teacher for music and engineering. I work in IT at the moment.

A lot of my free time I spend in playing with my kids, baking, cooking and playing music.

If I can find the time I like to go to France kiting on the beaches in the North, paragliding in the Alps. The tranquillity, the wind, being outside the entire day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In the summer of2015 I first couchsurfed in Annecy on a paragliding trip, and I got hooked (to both paragliding and couchsurfing).

So why am I on here:
- On travels: I like traveling alone but don't like being alone :-)
- At home: The way that everyone looks at "my" city differently. I love sharing, cooking together, learning new stuff, new people. And having jam sessions!

Interests

Kiting: I've been kiting for 18years now. Mostly buggying but also some landboarding (when the wind is perfect).

Paragliding: started in 2013 and got hooked quite fast. Every summer I take a training course to improve my skills, allowing me to go exploring the skies ever further.

Music: listening & playing, everywhere &anywhere. I play in a SkaPunk band in Gent.

Engineering: I like to know how stuff works

Food: I like to try new things (both making them and eating them). I have reached a point on wich I dare call myself an Amateur Baker / Pattisier :-p

Yoga: changed my everyday life, introduicing balance in body and mind. The awsome thing are the manyndifferent kind. For any state of mind or level of energy, there is a kind of yoga that suits it.

Wild camping: I'm always up for trading the bed for a forest, mountain or lake. Let's go :p
