Hi there!
My name is Eva, half Colombian, half Belgian. I studied art in Ghent.
I just turned 45 and live with my happy dog Boeddha and weirdo cat Colt.
Living in the city center of Kortrijk in between two gorgeous ancient churches and a park. We love our small but cosy appartment. Its located on the ground floor so we are able to enjoy the built in "garden" from my terrace where I managed to fit in a hammock and a small table with two chairs. Which is so lovely to enjoy the sunshine in Spring, Summer and Fall. Its my favourite place to read and write. Slow and easygoing pace here.
Meanwhile I'm working on a monumental art project of mine. Working on prototypes or graphic drawings. Currently also in the proces of writing a book. Art-school is literaly in my back yard. So I enrolled in the evening Visual Art courses. Lots of fun!
Go for a swim sometimes at a sportscenter nearby, enjoy the regular sauna, sooooo good...
Leaning towards a fit body, and getting good at it.
My cooking is mailny Whole Food Plant Based, for those who are not familiar, it's the healthy vegan options I love most.
Where I go my dog goes. Usually my car does too. Also love walking and riding my bike, if my pretty little legs agree. My cathedral of a body decided to stop growing when it hit 120 cm. So feeling good and healthy is my main priority.
I speak Dutch, but know my way around some Spanish, French, and English. Studied some Japanese too (10 years ago) because I travelled to Tokyo by myself for a month. Big fan of Japan.
Paris is only a 2.30 hour drive. Brussels an hour. Ghent half hour. Bruges 45 minutes.
Trainstation is a 5 minute walk from my house.
There are bikes you can rent.
Electrical Steps also.
My interest goes to workawayers who have put in an effort to write a good profile and took the time to read mine.
Please take the time to write a personal request if you want me to be your host. Unless I contacted you :)
Before applying, best to check my calender to see if I am available. One week stay only.
+++Being fluent in either ENGLISH, FRENCH, SPANISH or DUTCH is a requirement.+++

1. I studied art so I can offer an afternoon of drawing with a lighttable. I would be teaching you how to draw with this method. It really is for anyone :)
2. Sometimes I give private vegan cooking workshops. I studied several vegetarian cookingstyles. Also get lots of my inspiration from Macrobiotics, Japanese, Colombian, Mexican, Italian, Whole Food Plant Based...al sorts of styles... Things my body and tastebuds agree upon. I love to create healthy dishes that are packed full of flavour. So if your interested, we do a workshop.
3. I could guide you around Kortrijk. It has a "Medievel Town" feel to it. Historically interesting too. I noticed with previous workawayers and visitors they really love it and I know lots of great places around town.

So...
Helpfull positive people are welcome, and what follows is the main priority for now.
Some help needed in my "Garden" which is just a huge brick container of soil attached to the building. Soil needt to be changed and also some plants need to go and others need to be planted.
Editing a go pro video I made. I filmed my artwork exposition before I took it down. The video needs cutting pasting a voice over and some music here and there.
Working hours are to be agreed upon before arrival, by the both of us. Also think about what you would like me to offer you, besides staying at my house. Clarity about that is nice.
Therefore, a Skype talk would be a requirement before I agree upon your stay.

Alojamiento
My appartment is very small, one bedroom-one bathroom. I have a sofa-bed in my living room for you. So please keep in mind that I have no spare bedroom available for you. We would be using the same spaces in the appartment. That is why my preference goes to workawayers travelling with their campers. Good Wifi available. The kitchen is there for you to cook your meals, livingroom you can hang out in, in summertime the terrace has a hammock and table and two chairs. One small bathroom with shower is shared offcourse. Washer and also at your disposal. If you travel by car, underground parking spot available.
Algo más...
I work from home and it's easy to make myself available if needed.
We are in the city center so everything is walking distance.
If you want to explore further, like the beautiful Flemish Fields, a bike would come in handy.
Bike rental at the trainstation available.
Kortrijk is a small city with lot's of of historic architecture. Very nice to walk through, explore by bike and even by boat. Art and design is also a thing here.
There is a climbing facility nearby.
A big Expo complex that hosts big events like the design fair of Europe: "Interieur".
Lots of nice places to go to that I can show you once I know your interests.
Ghent is 30minutes away. So is Lille, in France. I live 15min from the border :)
Brussels is an hour away. So is Antwerp. So is Bruges...
Belguim is small, everything is easy accessable. :)

Thank you so much for letting me stay at your place in the lovely Kortrijk :) I have enjoyed the work and seeing around, but relaxing was the best part :P The food was superb and very healthy. I am glad that I have met you and I will see you some other time! :)
