And I’m delighted to say that it is the most beautiful place I’ve clapped my eyes on. … Continue reading The City of Lourve – Paris
During the European trip I had to stop off in Brussels! I’ve some friends living there but I’m also a massive fan of Belgian chocolate!

I went on a European getaway over the Christmas and traveled to four different cities. City number two was Rotterdam.

The Glass is empty yet heavy, The eyes are open yet empty, The heart is beating yet broken, The heart is moving yet silent. Moving forward yet stuck in the past, Living today but dreaming of yesterday, Wanting to move yet cannot walk, Want to be set free but locked inside. Needing love yet pushing it away, Wanting care yet acting alone, Asking for help … Continue reading Loneliness
