Travelling

"The world is a book, and those who do not travel only read a page."
Saint Augustine

My greatest wish is to see the world, or at least as much as possible of it.

In this section I'd like to share photographs and memories from the places I've seen.

A soundtrack to go with the images!

Roadtrip France - Switzerland - Italy - Germany

Summer has come to an end, it's raining, the leaves are falling... I made my own beautiful ending to a fantastic summer : I've spend two weeks roadtripping. Destination : Italy! We drove for 2.987 km through some of Europe's most beautiful places.

Les Châteaux de la Loire, France

This summer , my family and I spent a week vistiting the famous castles near the River 'Loire' in France. As promised, the majesty of the castles in renaissance-style was astonishing. I felt like a princess, walking around in those castle halls and marvellous gardens!

La Drôme, France

This years Easter-holiday was traditionally spent in France, in the area of the rivers Rhone and Drôme and the cities Montélimar and Valance. It's not a great touristic region, but that's just one of its charms. The little villages built on hills, surrounded by fields and flowers... it made me think of Tuscany in a way!

South of France

It's almost a tradition. Every Easter holiday we're off to the South of France. I've spent lovely times there. In 2010 I bought my camera, only one week before we left on vacation. The perfect occasion to test it! And I did.

Cap Blanc Nez, France

My first holiday without parents! With a couple of friends, we left for Nord Pas de Calais for a week. It was so beautiful up there!

Italy

In Belgian highschools it's tradition for the senior year to go on a trip to Italy. Once arrived, I truly fell in love with the glory of Italy. The manner of living, the language, the people! And especially the beautiful cities and landscapes. My favourite city of all was Siena. I'm hoping to revisit it soon!

Easter 2011

Ötztal, Austria 

My first time in Austria, and also my first vacation in the mountains, I think. With a befriended German family, we rented a house for a week. The weather was awful, but  after all it was a fun holiday! Unfortunately, on the last day I did something really stupid. We were packing and I wanted to pick up my camera bag, but I didn't notice it wasn't closed... My camera fell and it was broken. After that day, it took six months to repair it! Horrible.

Alpes du Sud, France

Wow, compared to the French Alps, the Austrian mountains are peanuts! I was so amazed when we first got there. Only the view from my window when I got up every morning, unforgettable!

London

I've finally got to London! It was a present from my parents, for my 18th birthday, but it took me over a year to get there. With one of my best friends, Nina, I explored the city for three days. Just LOVED it!
