About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am a citizen of the world

ABOUT ME

We are a family of 3 globe trotters, based in Brussels.
We lived for a couple of years in the US, plus a couple of years in Amsterdam. We love to travel around, meet nice people, hike and bike, enjoy cultural discoveries...
We would love to meet you.
What about you? Want to feel at home at our place, in the heart of Europe?

PHILOSOPHY

Nelson Madela: "C'est ce que nous faisons avec ce que nous avons, et non ce qu'on nous donne, qui fait la différence entre les gens."
