2017 Goals
It is that time of the year. To me, the end of December and the Christmas holidays mean finishing out the year strong, racing towards the finish line, and setting the table for a successful year going forward. We take the time to reflect upon the year and goals achieved in 2016. We review our […]
Reflection on 2016 Goals
End of the year 2016. Always a great moment to reflect back. 2016 was the year where we started to build our blog. During the past years, we became more and more frustrated on how bank employees treat people and advise them badly. The most incredible event was when I had an appointment made with […]
5 Basic habits you need to manage your money and become financially independent
Many people are afraid, are not interested, nor want to spend the time to manage their money.

It is always a pleasure to spend a day there exploring this medieval Belgian canal-filled town and its incredibly well-preserved historic town center. This city has the well-earned nickname of ‘Little Venice of the North’. We did go there at the end of […]
City Break Report : Experience New York city, USA
Just before an extensive business trip within the USA, I was able to visit New York city for 1,5 days. The flat that I booked, I can not recommend, so I won’t list it here. Make sure you read other people’s reviews and always give honest feedback when you rent a place. It will benefit […]
Belgium Must-See : Visit to Brussels
Brussels wears three impressive hats, as the capital of Flanders, Belgium and Europe. It started life as a fortress, then developed into a market square and eventually blossomed into the economic, political and social centre of the Flemish capital. There’s lots to see in the city from the bizarre comic strip to enjoying its café […]
Belgium Must-See : Visit to Ghent
Locals and tourists alike love Ghent. What’s not to love in the city after all, there is great art, great food and it is one of the countries best kept secrets. Ghent still feels fairly small compared to other cities in Europe and despite being a great place for a break, it is not overrun […]
