First off: no, I’m not trying to get pregnant. So, why am I sharing this personal information with the world, you might wonder? Well… because when I looked for information online, I barely found anything about this. Which is kinda weird, since sooo many women are using hormonal anticonception. All information should be out there […]
I’ve done it multiple times, living out of a a suitcase or a backpack for multiple months. It takes preparation and a lot of thinking and choices to know what to pack. But once you get the hang of it, it turns out to be pretty easy, both the packing and the eventual living out […]
We’re back in Belgium, as you all know. Our year around the world ended abruptly after ‘only’ 4,5 months. So, what are our plans now? Back in Belgium. What now? As you could read in a previous post, we had to end our travels to return to Belgium because of the Coronavirus. We quickly realised […]

Nepal, a wonderful country, with the loveliest people and the beautiful Himalaya mountains. There’s many reasons to visit this country, but the most popular one is definitely to trek. There are so many beautiful treks to choose from and I honestly think that you can’t go wrong since the Himalayas are so beautiful. By now […]
China is a fascinating country, in my opinion. It has a rich cultural history with so many different chapters. All of it still influencing on how the ‘land of the middle’ functions today. The country and its habits seem as intricate as its past. China often seems to be an entity on it’s own, not […]
