Belgium

Bruges is stunning. Picture postcard perfect. So much to see and do. And eat

Room and breakfast (or what’s lefts of it) a the Pand hotel, right in the centre of town.

I found it particularly beautiful at night. Maybe because there are less people around. The light works to create a magic atmosphere.

We walked everywhere. My step counter nearly popped. And me with it.

Shops of all kind, from quirky to avant garde.

We tried as many types of beer that we could, but didn’t even scratch the surface.

And did I mentioned the cakes?

I love the contrasting styles.

I’ve never seen that many swans in my life. They pretty much own the place. Of course, they are the symbol of the city.

Experimenting with lighting effects in the dark pub. While beer tasting, naturally.

Love the details! Especially the lace-like fence.

I couldn’t get enough of the contrasts.

I’m not sure who left the bicycle parked there, but it seemed to be a feature. And what about the bench, practically in the canal? For those hot summer days, when you need to freshen up after a long walk, I guess

Overwhelmed by the crowds of tourists in the town centre? (I was!) Luckily there are oasis of quiet and peace just a little walk away.
