Welcome to my photography blog and portfolio. My goal is to document the world around me, from the small details of everyday life to the grand landscapes that take our breath away. Whether I'm at home or traveling to new places, I am always on the lookout for new and interesting subjects to photograph. My photographs are a visual diary of my experiences and a way to share the world as I see it with others. I hope you enjoy exploring my collection and discover the beauty of the world through my lens.

6 January 2021: Update on the coronavirus pandemic in Belgium. During the week from 27 December to 2January an average of 1,580 people/day tested positive for the coronavirus. This is down 12% on the 7-day rolling average for the previous week.  During this period fewer tests have been carried out, therefore, it is possible that some infections are (still) undetected. Given that the current numbers still don’t reflect the full impact of the festive period and the returning holiday makers one may wonder if we are heading towards a plateau that is way too high to consider any relaxations of the lockdown measures soon. Yesterday’s good news was that the government announced to revisit the vaccination campaign after it was criticised for its slowness, as other countries had managed to vaccinate a lot more people. Also, more and more healthcare professionals are calling for changing the vaccination priorities. They argue that health care workers who are in direct contact with care home residents and hospital patients should be prioritised when it comes to deciding who gets the corona vaccine first. That makes a lot of sense to me. Anyway, more information about the sped-up campaign will be given on Friday. Back to memory lane… On this very day, 4 years ago, we were exploring the rural shores of Lake Titicaca by bike – Titilaka, Peru.
