I am a humanitarian photographer working for an emergency NGO on a sabbatical travelling in India for 5 months. I normally live in Brussels and will have a couch to offer when I return, but for now, I'm more looking into places to stay while in India.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have always offered my couch to friends in need or friends of friends and like receiving interesting people, exchange ideas, discuss around a good meal. I have also used friend's couches around the world for travelling. I feel it is much more interesting and authentic to meet people and staying in a place that feels like a home. I'm new to this site, but not new to couch surfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Tandem mountain biking on dirt roads in the beautiful hills of Rwanda. Going through many small villages where people had never seen such bicycle with two people, nor a white woman cycling...

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach raw food and love to cook healthy meals. Love to learn cooking tricks, play with flavours and spices, select fresh fruits and veggies from the market, learn the local ways. Happy to discover and hike around too.
