39.DAYS.

Last week was a really strange one, with lots of goodbyes.
First of all, I threw a goodbye-party because in exactly 39 days I'm officialy off to the other side of the world. The party was hosted in the Gringo Bar, a Spanish-themed cocktailbar with amazing cocktails and sangria's. It was a hell of a party, with many good friends and many goodbyes.
Goodbyes are never easy, but at least I'll get to see all my friends again in 8 months.
Someone I also had to say goodbye to way too early, was my sweet cat Cokes. He died in a hit and run at only 8 months old, and I'm still processing what happened. I'm gonna miss that little thing so much and it still hurts thinking about it..
But still I try to get on and not to forget the fact that in 39 days the adventure of my life will start, and how exciting this is.

GHENT.JUNGLE.

A few weeks ago I discovered a really inspiring place, only a few steps from my room in Ghent: the University's Botanical Garden. This domain houses a stunning park and a couple of greenhouses, where more than 10.000 plant species and flowers are bred for scientific and university purposes. It's also free for the public to visit, and the serene and beautiful scenery makes it the perfect place to unwind, wander around, paint, draw or photograph..

More flowers after the jump...

LONDON.AGAIN.

Last weekend, me and 3 friends went to London (again), mainly to see the amazing group "Foster the People" perform live in the O2-Academy in Brixton (and amazing it was!), but of course we also took the opportunity to enjoy this amazing city for a couple of days. Although the weather wasn't too good (buy hey, it's London!), we had a great time, full of beautiful shops, markets, food and coffee.  Can't wait to go back...
