Atheist, Athlete, Explorer, Musician, Photographer, Single, Student

I studied English and Spanish for four years at Ghent University in Belgium and now I study Economics. I live in Aalst, a city situated between Ghent and Brussels. I lived in Aranjuez, Madrid for 5 months as an Erasmus student. As Madrid is located in the centre of Spain, it was ideal to explore the whole of Spain, which I did. I want to learn as much as possible, so, when I was travelling Spain, I used CouchSurfing and AirBnb to meet locals and to speak Spanish with them. I was a leader in the youth movement in my hometown for 5 years and now I am part of an amateur theatre group.

I love to run and to play the guitar (I prefer the acoustic guitar). I'm passionate about languages and the cultures of the languages I study (English and Spanish).

Applied Linguistics, translation and interpreting studies
