About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Turn the world into the other direction

ABOUT ME

We are a fun couple from Belgium, believing that the best pastime is travelling. Those plans for world trip are never that far away...
We love meeting new people and crave the international atmosphere a metropole has!

PHILOSOPHY

With only one life, it's better to make the best of every minute. Create your choices.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Sharing experiences makes this world a more understanding place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We hosted now several people, with very different background: it never becomes tiring... Everybody has their own story.
Surfing is the best way to REALLY get to know a city. We've had some good experiences surfing as a couple.

Interests

We're two and together we have lots of interests. Come by to find out. Cooking, travelling, dancing and hot weather are common interests.

Music, Movies, and Books

While Marieke is much more into TV series, I'm a keen lounge music lover. Marieke devours books a kilo. We're salsa dancers and thus enjoy lots of latino music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen plenty of amazing things. I've dwelled amazing spots driven by work. Good experiences.
Whether it was waking up in the Peruvian rainforest or on a deserted island in the Carribean: hard to make choices.

Teach, Learn, Share

JB will dweep on land reclamation and seemingly endless world expansion.
Marieke will give you a correct insight on the ethics of genetically modified plants. And after class, we'll teach you everything of why Belgians enjoy food and drinks (beer and chocolate...)
