Hi! I'm Bart, 25 years old, live in Belgium and am currently travelling through the US. I graduated as a civil engineer and have worked for a construction firm for over a year. I love travelling and meeting people from all over the world and different walks of life. I think this world would be a lot less crazy if we all took the time to talk and listen to each other a little more. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting local people and letting them advise me on some hidden city gems!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm into all kinds of music, from Paul Simon to Tupac. I really enjoy going to the movie theater and try to keep up with the best that's coming out. My favorite actor is Joaquin Phoenix and I'm secretly in love with Salma Hayek. I love reading, but I should try to make more time for it ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was twelve I won a checkers competition. Also, I swam with turtles in Mexico. I've done some amazing and beautiful trips and would love to tell you more about them!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love talking history and philosophy, and politics when I'm a little tipsy. Overall I am an open minded person who is always in for a good time, outdoorsy stuff or an afternoon latte!
