3 days, 95km, the entire Belgian coastline 💥 T 3 days, 95km, the entire Belgian coastline 💥

The Streek GR Kust had been on my must-hike list for a while and I'm so glad I finally went and did it!

Infamous for its high rise buildings and concrete boardwalks, this trail will show you that there is in fact a very different side to the Belgian coast too. The trail alternates between beach, dunes and woodland, making for a varied view along the way. Don't forget to circle back to the boardwalk sometimes for a much deserved waffle or ice cream! 😉

Ps: the trail is 103km in total. I stopped earlier to meet my friends in Knokke.

31 circles around the sun today 🪩 I am probab 31 circles around the sun today 🪩 

I am probably supposed to make this a sentimental post about how messy 29 was and how I had to come back to myself at 30 and figure out how to do life alone. But I'm currently rushing to get to work and I have zero inspiration as to what to say. I just wish that 31 will be (at least a little) less rocky than the past two years, so that I may finally have a chance to feel the world around me. Goodness knows I need it. Also, buying a dryer would be nice. 

Virtual 🥂 and 🍰 for all of you!

Instagram: golden hour and a perfect sunset on the beach in Normandy. Reality: in bed with a concussion for the 3rd day in a row. Sleep, sleep, repeat. Today I finally felt a little human again, so here's to hoping I'll recover enough to go hiking again this weekend.

My New Years Eve

{ J.crew sweater // H&M skirt & tights // footwork boots }

They say that when you are in love, you make Him perfect. He can do no wrong, and you will stay when everyone else says they would run. But sometimes, you just have to admit: dang, that boy IS perfect. I had to admit this at midnight on January the first 2013, while standing in the rain, a bottle of kiddy champagne in one hand (the real stuff!) and K in the other, while we were watching colorful sparkles fly high up in the sky. Pretty glorious already, huh? And then he grabbed me more tightly, and said: hey sweets, we’re 3 years and 8 months together right now! and he gave me a little  kiss on my nose. And I fell as hard for him as the first time I met him, 5 years ago on the ice rink. One tip: do not go to the ice rink when you can’t ice skate. Ice is hard! 

Oh, I’m so corny! 

Happy 2013 Everyone!
