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.

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!

The First Signs of Spring

Zara jeans // WE cardigan // Hollister top // Six earrings // Nine West flats

I don’t know why it feels like a big surprise, but I am blown away by all your comments, your tweets and that one super sweet email regarding my last post… . I had not expected to receive any feedback. I guess that was my ignorant self speaking, because the responses have been overwhelming. I’m sitting here in my living room, with my laptop on my lap (lap-top, haha) and that infamous coca-cola light commercial is on TV (I don’t think the gardener is that hot, actually) … and, okay… I’ll admit it… I am totally crying. You guys are the best and I can’t even find the right words to say thank you right now. Thank you for sharing your experiences and giving so much great advice. I know I shouldn’t let what happened bother me so much, but I really needed to ventilate somewhere to get a clear mind. Since I can’t find my words today, I’ll copy-paste the post I prepared yesterday. I did promise you a more happy note after all!

It’s here! It’s here! The past two days the weather gods have been kind to us Belgians. With temperatures climbing up to a comfortable 18°C (that’s 64°F)! I donned my new favorite outfit to dance around in the first rays of sunshine. We had a pretty dark and gloomy winter in Belgium, so I can use a good dose of Vitamin D. Hooray! Spring means that my birthday is coming up soon. Birthdays mean presents, and in a girls’ case: early birthday presents too. Thanks to a co-worker who lives in Newark, New Jersey a pretty little package is on it’s way to my little grabby hands. It’s a little treat to myself after been so down the past weeks. Oooh, I can’t wait! 

PS: I’m not taking of these jeans anymore. Just sayin’. They’re awesome.  And new. Girls love new things, haha.

    AHH somehow I didn't see your post from yesterday! I would have stopped by otherwise 🙁
    Im so so so so so sorry to hear about that CRAP they put you through. And all the other things you've gone through in life. No one deserves to feel like that. You are an amazing person and those who don't see it are ridiculous. Keep being yourself, and you will attract the right ones. The people who love you and WANT to be with you. Seriously, I can't believe some people these days. Especially when they're supposed to have GROWN UP by now. UGH it makes me mad.
    Anyways, know that you rock, you look AH-MAZING in those pants, and keep smiling 🙂 You're better than the rest of them anyway.

    I'm loving Spring! I can't wait for it to get a little warmer, but I'm still happy that there is sunshine out and every once in a while I can feel just a peek of it soaking into my face.
    Bring. It. On. sunshine!
