    Description

    Hi! I'm Cornelis, 38 years old and pretty content with my live. I live in the cultural city of Ghent. It's a great place. I'm also a wheelchair user and I study at the University. I don't really need any practical help. The thing is that it is a bit safer not to live alone, in case something goes wrong. If I would fall or something. Also I can not cook for myself or clean the house. Thats why I need some help!
