To become a swan you must first be an ugly ducklin To become a swan you must first be an ugly duckling 🐣

Say hello to my little friend 👋 We met at "Cycling Through the Water" in Belgium. He was mostly interested in the contents of my back pack and willingly posed for a few pictures, hoping I would share my snacks. Unfortunately for him, this girl does not share snacks! Once he realised he wasn't going to get anything, he dumped me for another tourist 🤷‍♀️

This idyllic spot can be found along the popular hiking and cycling network between Bokrijk and National Park Hoge Kempen in Limburg (which happen to be two of my favorite places in the province!). My friend and I arrived just in time for sunset and enjoyed a little walk around. It was a Tuesday evening in December, but still lots and lots of people were hanging out and social distancing wasn't always easy on the narrow paths. I am casually hiding my mask in the seclond picture 😉

📸📌: Fietsen door het water, knooppunt 91, Bokrijk. You can park your car on the payed parking lots of Bokrijk and walk to the exact location ( +/- 1km). Interested in a longer hike/bike ride? Look up De Wijers cyclist network and outline your favorite route!

Today I miss good old fashion blogging 😌 I st Today I miss good old fashion blogging 😌 

I still think about that time (2012-2013-ish) a lot and it makes me sad because it will never be like that again. Going out to shoot 2x a week, edit and post pictures to the internet, writing a blurb of text about myself and then on to read as many other blogs as I could find. I don't know how I ever found the time to do all of that?? 😅

Not that it was all rosy. I remember I was unhappy about my blog, always wanting it to be better and have more outfits to share. But now I look back on those days and realize that it WAS the peak moment. I definitely wasn't the most well-known fashion blogger with the bestest sponsorships, but I was having an enjoyable time with enjoyable people.

This picture is from a shoot I did for the blog this Fall. I love how these photos came out!! Everything was perfect: from the fair-isle sweater I looked for for YEARS to the light and the colorful foliage. I love when that happens 🧡

Whenever my mind is full and the burnout symptoms creep back in, I like to go out for a coffee and an aimless walk around town 😌

There aren't many things that ground me like the feeling of a hot cuppa in my hand and the smell of freshly roasted coffee beans in my nose. A true cup of comfort, you could say! ❤️

That lost time between mid january and mid March, when it's still cold and dark outside, nature is bare and holidays are far away. I cannot wait for wild bluesbells to pop up and magnolia buds to slowly fold open. How about you? ✨

PS: forgive me my latergrams from Fall, but I think you all know how bad I am at posting consistently by now. I'd hate for these photos to be lost on my camera roll.

I took a two week hiatus from the good ole Gram to get used to my new longer working hours and binge Bridgerton. Am I the only one who thinks that show is a hot mess? It's basically a 1800s costume drama but with taylor swift on violins and the occasional close-up of Rége-Jean Page's butt 😳 I can't help but wonder... what the *bleep* did I just watch? 😅

Happy Friday guys! You've made it throgh the second week of 2021 🥳 If you don't have any plans for the weekend yet, Bridgerton is available on Netflix 😉

It was a year of many lows that taught me how to find my highs in the little things. Despite the tough times, there were also plenty of moments filled with friends, coffee & rose wine, little escapes in my own country and... A PUPPY! Thank you all for following along! ✨

Happy New Year! 🥂🍾 I don't know what will be written in chapter 2021, but I'm hoping for 365 pages full of love and light for all of us.

Ps: the photos from Valencia, Helsinki and Tallinn were made in 2019 but posted in 2020 🙈 I did not travel abroad this past year.

Garden Days at Hex Castle

The Flemish province of Limburg is to me, without doubt, the most beautiful of all. Spread unevenly through  the hilly landscape are large estates and castles, such as the beautiful domain of Hex. After exploring the Haspengouw region in May, I subscribed to a newsletter to inform me about other fun events and the first email I received included an invitation to the open garden days. I’m a girl and I love castles, so I knew I had to be there. I marked the September dates in my agenda, and used the two months that laid ahead to convince my parents we really had to go.

I was a bit bummed about the fact that the email said the gardens would be freely accessible, yet we had to pay an entrance fee. But I quickly forgot about the setback once we were inside and free to roam the entire castle grounds. There were policemen and women on horses guarding the visitors, a beekeeper to scare the kids, plenty restaurants and local produce-tasting spots, a small museum with dozens of old horse carts and carriages, and so on. But I loved the flower – and rose gardens most of all.

We had, just like this year, had a relatively warm winter and late snowfall and frost. This deferred winter had caused many of the roses to bloom later than normal, and so there were not many roses blooming in the gardens yet. A kind gardener showed me where the few blooming bushes were so I could take pictures further away from the crowded paths. Running into people as kind as the gardener, always make day trips so much better. I had never smelled roses before, and now there was a big bush of gorgeous pink roses in full bloom. I was the only one around the enjoy them. It was a great experience! After the rose garden we walked around the pop-up flower market (where you could buy pineberry plants) and then headed to the flower – and vegetable gardens. That’s where most of the above pictures were taken! There were so many flowers and butterflies. I was completely in my element, haha. The garden is build up against a hill, so once you’re at the top you have a lovely view over the village. At the top of the hill was also a cute little cottage, where you could buy local products such as elderberry syrup and honey from the estate’s beekeeper. I think it’s used as a shed during most of the year. I had a great day out with my family. Even if my dad wasn’t in the mood for elderberry pancakes and my sister kept scaring the butterflies away. I was really happy with the photos I took on this day, and therefore am surprised to find out I hadn’t posted them yet. Thank goodness someone started the #ThrowbackThursday trend on Instagram. It serves me well today!

I hope you guys are heading for a great weekend. Enjoy!

    You take the most gorgeous landscape and nature photographs! Even when I was in school to become a photographer I just never was super great at photographing anything outdoors. I was much better at portraits and weddings but those are so crazy sometimes that I wished I could just take my camera and walk and enjoy nature!
