Prinsenhof – The backyard of Keizer Karel
"Prinsenhof" is an area of nice streets and a quiet place to walk in Ghent. For me the best part is the flea market on the first Sunday of September.

Sint-Pietersnieuwstraat – Vivid street

About me
About me
Graphic designer, guide and barista. 3 different ways to live and look at the world.
Born and raised in Ghent, although I grew up in a small town near Ghent I never left the city. For me it's the best place to be creative, to get inspired, to love and have the time of my life.
Give me a newspaper, a coffee and a seat in a nice coffee place or in the shadow of a tree and I'm happy. Some culture now and then, and I'm complete.
Why Ghent?
Ghent is a city in motion. The city where I was born. Historical and medieval, but not a museum. Old and brand new at the same time. Small enough to know it all, but big enough to discover brand new things. Vivid but relaxing, thanks to my friends.
