This week was all about spending time with family. We caught up with my mum, aunts, uncles, cousins and my godchild.

First stop: Westende. We played endless rounds of pétanque, embarrassed ourselves at mini golf 🏌️‍♀️ 🤪 and took every opportunity to enjoy cake, coffee and a chat in cosy cafés while soaking up the sun.

What a week! The weather was chef’s kiss, and we took full advantage of it. We explored the beautiful “Polders” on foot from our idyllic camping spot near Oudenburg.

We realised that we had far too much stuff. Way more than we needed — or even used! So we sold and donated a lot, and only packed what really mattered (ok, ok … we are now also the proud tenants of a self storage unit…). Finally, we gave up our apartment and moved into Wilma, our trusty van.
