About Me

Hi everyone!
I am a very artistic girl. I like expressive arts, going to museums, exchange ideas about what you like, certain opinions etc. Further more I like to study history and read books, essays etc. It's always nice to have a good talk and laugh! It's nice to engage myself for projects. I make art to. I try every branch of the expressive arts. I paint, draw, portray, form ceramics ... Further I sing in a choir and with my sister sometimes, also at events at school. I write poetry and tried to write a sort of story for a book. I try to do as many as possible to express myself and get to know myself. At home I have my own art studio wich is really cool ! I still can't believe... :) I want to look with an open view to the world and art is my greatest friend in this case.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My familie is very small and they prefer to stay in their own country. On the other hand I like to travel, it's my dream to see the world and meet people. I think it's amazing that you can contect someone from the other side of the world! Maybe I am a little bit shay sometimes but I don't want that! For me this is a great opportunity to expand my point of view.

Music, Movies, and Books

The greatest movie in the world is 'The King's Gardens' with Kate Winslet and Matthias Schoenaerts by Alan Rickman. About the beautiful gardens of Versailles from Louis the 14th. Period films are my absolute favorite! The best book that I ever read is 'This is all' from Aidan Chambers. It's a large book wich is actually a diary from an 16 year old girl. It appeals to me because it is all so apparent. My favorite music is not one specific genre of music but it must to take control over me. I have this feeling by the music of Agnes Obel, Ed Sheeran, Adele, Gabrielle Aplin, Ellie Goulding, Bastille, Hooverphonic, Gabriel Rios ... But I have this feeling also by classic music. It helps me to calm down especially when I'm painting or drawing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For me it's absolutely amazing, I have once sung with a well-known music artist in a pop-up choir. I had the opportunity to perform in a well-known Hall in our country. The artist was Lady Linn.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can give you a lot of information of artists and technics of art disciplines. Especially of P.P. Rubens, Johannes Vermeer, Monet, Cézanne, Michael Borremans... I would like to learn more about new artists and history. I love certain periods like the 16th - 17th century when there lived a lot of great artists and Louis the 14th. I can share a passion for art but also a open view for other interests.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As I said, I can share a passion for art. But also a collection of comic strips like 'The Kiekeboes', art books, materials.
