Most Memorable Travel Experience
--> Backpacking through Andalusia (Southern Spain). The views over the Ronda valley, the mystique old mosque in Cordoba, the mighty Alhambra in Granada and the white villages of the Alpujarras. And later visiting Madrid also to have delicious tapas and Tinto de Verano on Plaza Santa Ana. I'm in love with Spain, it is always on top of my travel list :)
--> Admiring masterpieces of artwork in Tuscany and Rome, Italy.
--> All of stunning Thailand, my first non-Europe trip!
--> Beautiful Angkor Wat

Profile
When I come to think about it I've loved traveling ever since I was a child. I've always liked to see new places and to discover new cultures and architectures. I'm an addict really, traveling is what I live for and my goal is to see as much as I possible can. The world is so big and life is so short!
What can I say more about myself? I am a 23 years old Belgian girl, working for an insurance company in Leuven. I'm curious and honest, but also shy and sometimes a bit lazy. I wouldn't describe myself as outgoing, although I love to meet new people and to have fun. It's my goal to enjoy every little part of life, and to be positive and good to others.
If you'd like to know anything more, don't hesitate to ask!

Zaventem, Belgium -› Barcelona, Spain -› …
Finally I made it there! 6 Days for exploring the city and Montserrat. I love Spain, and Barcelona was no difference :)
Nov 29, 2008 – Apr 13, 2009
I've decided that it is no use to explore the world without knowing your own country. And even more, I've realized that there are many beautiful places in Belgium that I haven't yet visited. So, number one on the list for 2009 and beyond is to explore more of my tiny country. I'll list my little trips in this blog to keep you posted :)
Feb 07, 2009 – Apr 07, 2009
Bangkok, Thailand -› Siem Reap, Cambodia -› …
After years of thinking about it and months of planning about it I finally decided to really do it. This will be my first solo trip ever! A one months journey from Bangkok over Siem Reap to Ho Chi Minh, and all the way up through Vietnam. Let me share this adventure with you!
***UNDER CONSTRUCTION: I will for now type only in Dutch to keep my parents updated, but when Im getting back home I will write the full report on everything in English for you***

Naar Praag ga ik met mijn collega's van het werk. Ik zie alleen tegen de gigantische busreis op. 12 uur heen en 's maandags weer 12 uur terug! Volgend jaar heb ik alleen nog maar Kaapstad staan, omdat ik 5 tickets "gescored" heb voor WK-voetbal wedstrijden. In het voorjaar hoop ik met een aantal TB's een klein weekje Istanbul te gaan doen.
Verder ideeën om vanuit Moskou de trans-siberië-express te nemen naar China en dan via Hong Kong weer terug. Maar slechts ideetjes :)
Momenteel nog afwachten op mijn werk. We zitten ook 'tijdelijk' in de deeltijd WW, maar we hebben veel klanten in de USA, en daar trekt het weer iets aan, dus hopen we het beste er maar van.
Het weekend was redelijk druk, gisteren dan. Doordat de bladeren ruimschoots vallen, heb ik de dakgoten schoon moeten maken, en tevens een aantal gebarsten dakpannen vervangen :). Moet ook gebeuren hè.
Goede start van weer een nieuwe week! Groetjes Jos.
Ik zie da je naar syria en Jordan wil gaan volgend jaar :O groepsreis of? zit er ook aan te denken, weet nog niet wat ik precies volgnd jaar wil gaan doen.. zijn zo veel keuzes!!
