ABOUT ME

I'M LIVING WITH 4 OTHER HOMIES IN A SHARED HOUSE NOW. WE HAVE A COMMON ACCOUNT. PLEASE USE THIS ACCOUNT FOR COUCH REQUESTS AND ONLY USE THIS ONE FOR MY PERSONAL INFORMATION. THIS IS THE LINK:

http://www.couchsurfing.org/people/coutereel/

I'm working in Leuven in an organisation dealing with the Environment (basically we want stuff to get colder) and as is very conventional here, I will write all the typical stuff that everyone writes:
yes I like to go out (surprise) and I like to have a beer with friends (surprises keep on coming!). I very much enjoy movies and when I have spare time and spare money I love to travel. I've had 2 experiences as an exchange student: 1 in Salamanca (Spain) and 1 in Asunción (Paraguay), which were really great for me.
I love loads of music although my personal career as a guitarist is not the most succesfull one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
