Gift an experience: A trip to Disneyland Paris
Note to self: When you draft a post in word, don’t forget to put it on the blog 🙂 It’s been again a while since I posted. I promise I will try to do better next year. But let me revive this blog with this new post. With Christmas around the corner, you may already have purchased and maybe wrapped all your presents as well. However, if you are like me, you may not have a clue what to buy your brother-in-law, or nieces and nephews.

This trip already started with some anxiety as the hotel I was supposed to stay at sent me an email two days…

Birthday weekend 2021
In less than 6 months there is another set of candles to blow out on a new birthday cake, so it is about time I take you back to this year’s birthday. That it was going to be again a birthday celebrated in Belgium was already a given as non-essential travel was not allowed until after Easter because of Covid. However, as the numbers were getting higher again it remained still to be seen if it would be a stay-at-home one or if I could make a weekend out of it. The weather forecast was also a typical one for the time of year with March showers. So while I…
