Autumn is definitely one of my favorite seasons. The autumn foliage with the yellow, red and orange colors makes the days look warmer and brighter, while they actually get chillier and darker. During the moody rainy days your home seems…
My Most Romantic Travel Story
Who hasn’t had a romance while traveling? I think a lot of us have met at least one person abroad who we fell in love with or at least had passion for! When I travel it is the last thing…
Traveling solo in Morocco as a female; the truth
Traveling solo has never been a problem for me. But when thinking of Morocco I kept being hesitant. I thought it would be better to wait until I had found the perfect travel partner, since organized tours aren’t my style. I heard so many horror stories about this country and so many people advised me not to go there by myself. So I kept postponing my decision to travel solo as a female to Morocco. If only I had known what I know today…
What made 2018 so great and why 2019 will be even better!
It’s almost the end of 2018 so it’s time to reflect! I have to admit I didn’t really expect too much of 2018. It started with the awful news at work that there would be reorganizations with a job loss of 40%! So that wasn’t really something to look forward to. Luckily I had planned some trips already in late 2017 so I could focus on that. Somehow I managed to stay positive even though I went through a rollercoaster of emotions and I also learned a few more things. So I wanted to share with you how I got through 2018 making it a fantastic year and why I think 2019 will be even better! But be warned, this is a post where I am completely me and honest.
Antwerp Pride: why there should be more events like this in the world
The Antwerp Pride is an event organized every Summer in Antwerp. The party event takes several days and consists of multiple activities. The main event everyone is always looking forward to the most is the parade. All organisations that are active in or support homosexuality, transgenderness, etc participate in the parade. Everyone puts on their finest clothes or costumes and is dancing happily around. This event is not just a party though. The most important thing about it is to create awareness.
Little things you can do to save the earth
After reading and watching the news lately, I’m getting so angry and disappointed. Deadly heat waves in China, extreme heat of over 48°C in Spain and Portugal, heat waves and drought in my own country Belgium, wildfires in California, Greece and even in Sweden… and let’s be honest, there’s only one who is responsible for all this: the human race. Don’t even try to deny it. It is you and me who are guilty of destroying our dear planet earth, our home!…
Why you should travel solo at least once
Everyone should travel solo at least once in their life to a place they’ve never been before. Traveling solo is the ultimate life experience to discover more about yourself and your surroundings. I learned a lot by traveling solo, so let me explain why you should do it too!
Not every solo traveler is a loner…
“I love traveling solo because I can do whatever I want, whenever I want.”, I said to one of my newest friends at the pub. “Yes, because you’re a loner”, he answered… That shocked me for a second, because the last thing I am is a loner. On the contrary, I am someone who always makes sure to plan something with friends every weekend. I don’t like being in solitude. So I immediately answered him back by saying that I am not and that there’s a difference between a loner and being independent. That made him think…
Live a fearless happy life
There’s something I need to get off my chest about fear. Recently I experienced a setback because of fear and this made me realize how much I changed in the last 2 years. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not the one who was afraid, I’m a firm believer of not letting anything holding me back from doing something. Today someone even told me I’m a great example of how you should live life and handle situations. So that’s why I decided to write another motivational post; so hopefully I can inspire people to be fearless too and live life to the fullest!
