Would you like to see my favourite 2023 spots for yourself ?
This is where you can find them :

• the shed in the garden of the English Convent, Bruges, Belgium
• Andries Botha’s gorgeous elephants’ herd, on permanent display at the Verbeke Foundation, Kemzeke, Belgium, but this summer on a short, well deserved holiday break to the Grand’Place, Brussels, Belgium
• sunflowers in the countryside Hertsberge, a small village in the Bruges’ woodlands, so close to where I grew up
• a view from the Castle of the Counts, on the three towers of Ghent, my teenage city
• a latte macchiato at restaurant Albert situated on the top floor of the Royal Library of Belgium, Brussels
• too many pictures to choose from showing off Bruges, so I went for some home-made graffiti, referring to the street art works in my home town
• Belgian offshore windmill parcs, seen from the ABC tower at the Port of Antwerp-Bruges platform Zeebrugge
• poppies, not in the Ypres Salient, but once again in Hertsberge
• Auguste Rodin’s Le Penseur (the thinker), at Laeken’s cemetery, Brussels, Belgium

And yes, it is me, popping up in the top left corner …
In case you’re looking for a guide to go and explore, you know where to find me 😉
