We are a Belgian couple of 64 & 60 year old but young at heart.
We like to travel, music, movies, reading, nature, culture, museums.
We live in the countryside between the medieval cities of Ghent and Brugges.

We are open minded, I love my organic garden and Karolien is an artist, who gives workshop screenprint, makes crazy big brooches and art in her studio.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why we are on CS, to meet the people of the country we visit, to share good chats, laughs, drinks and to find out more what is interesting around, what you don't find in tourist guides and to do the same for our guests.

Karolien had longer than me an own profile on couch surfing, so you can find more about our CS experiences on her account (Karolien Boucquaert), we surfed and hosted many times and we had very interesting experiences, always great and in the meantime we built out friendships based on our meetings alongs CS

We are friendly, open minded and we have a lot of respect for other people.
