Go West! 24 hours in Nieuwpoort
Westtoer asked me and my family to come round to explore the Belgian seaside town of Nieuwpoort. Since we love taking trips all together... off we went! First stop of the day was the brand new concept store Kabine Koksijde....

Biesonder Boeiend Bilzen
The Province of Limburg is one of our favourite regions in Belgium to spend a short holiday. It's closeby, very green and the people are always super friendly! So naturally, I was very pleased when Toerisme Bilzen asked me to come down together with my family for a fun weekend! We stayed at the very comfortable Biezonder Holiday Home in Eigenbilzen. De provincie Limburg is één van onze favoriete bestemming voor een kortbij-vakantie. Het is er altijd heerlijk rustig, erg groen en de mensen zijn er super-vriendelijk! Natuurlijk zei ik meteen 'ja' toen Toerisme Bilzen ons vroeg om een weekendje daar door te brengen. We verbleven in het uiterst comfortable Vakantiehuis Biesonder in Eigenbilzen....

I have always loved this car and she - yes, it's a she - has featured on my Instagram account numerous times before....

B is for Bread. And Bokrijk.
The open-air museum Bokrijk has been one of my favourite places to visit in Flanders since... well, for ever (as the ones who follow me on Instagram have probably noticed already). It is just a great place to go for a walk with the family in beautiful green surroundings and meanwhile learn a bit more about farm and village life in days gone by. ...

A wonderful weekend in Hasselt
Hasselt has been one of our favourite cities for shopping and wining and dining for quite a long time now , so when Toerisme Limburg asked me to spend two days here exploring the city a bit further, I did not hesitate at all! Hasselt is al lang één van onze...

Timeless beauty
Last weekend we headed to Belgium's oldest city Tongeren to go and see the 'Timeless Beauty' exposition at the Gallo-Romeins Museum. This exposition is a little bit different from what you usually get to see in this museum (also their permanent collection is worthwhile btw!).         A...

Delicious Ostend
A few weeks ago I was invited by the Ostend tourist board (Visit Oostende) to a lovely beer dinner. You first need to know that I absolutely love Ostend. Not only is it Belgium's only 'real city' by the sea, but there is always something new to discover....
