Me in Belgium
* * * HOME * * * Me in Finland
Hi, here's me more than fiveyears ago, when I was still as young as my hair was short. But now I've dangerously crossed the age of 27 - I'm getting old! :I Anyway, if it's some interest to anyone (if not: skip this part) I was helping at the annual Finnish Christmas Bazaar then and those little ones are the kids of Seamen's Church priests in Antwerp (I haven't asked their permission to put this photo on the 'Net so I hope I won't get sued...).
I've spent 22 years of my life in a small northern Belgian village, called Vosselaar. It has just 10,000 inhabitants and we all speak Dutch. As you can see on the photos below it's a peaceful, quiet place with lots of green. I'm used to living in this clean air and when I stayed in Antwerp during weekdays for my studies during the last few years I was living in Belgium, it was really nice to get back here for the weekends.
I'm an only child, which means I'm very spoiled and I always gets what I want, of course.
I like to do all kinds of things in my spare time, but most of all I like listening to music and almost all of the time I'm playing my favourite albums.
Then, I also like writing letters, going (window) shopping, watching some movies occasionally, photography (those photos you can find on the Finland pages are take by me e.g.), a bit of cycling now and again, and, when I am lucky and there is a party where they play my kind of music, I go out dancing every weekend.
This is our home (in Belgium), build in a dead-end street, which is really nice cos it meant I could easily play out on the streets as a kid.
My roomview out on the back garden. There aren't any bugging noices, but sometimes (when I want to sleep longer, it is kind of annoying that it's always those damn birds who wake me up! :)
This is the central church in Vosselaar. It'sthe nicest building in our village as all the other buildings are quite new and thus boring. It's an ordinary catholic church if anyone's interested...
A little piece of sea sand in the middle of Belgium! Just a remainder of the ages when continental Europe was beneath the watersurface... It's called Konijnenberg (Rabbits Mountain). Kids love it as they can play with the sand during summers and slide downhill during winters!
