Hi all! I'm Julia, a Belgian girl who prefers living abroad. I studied translation in Brussels and Utrecht (the Netherlands), lived in Birmingham (UK) for a bit and in French Polynesia for a year. I spent a year and a half in Malta ad another year and a half in London. I'm now back in Belgium for a while. I'm planning to travel more, which is why I joined Couchsurfing!
A little more about me: I love food and trying out new cuisines. I love languages and linguistics. I love trees (I grew up in the countryside). I work as a freelance translator. I'm open-minded and love a good laugh. I read a lot when I find the time.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I think it's the best opportunity to meet local people and a great way to discover the country I'm visiting.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Music: from mainstream radio hits to Russian and Dutch pop and older stuff

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Does packing my things and moving to the other side of the world qualify?
