Roam and Thrive

Discover our Belgium travel guides and plan the perfect trip to Belgium. 

A small and often overlooked country in Europe, Belgium has a lot to offer anyone who decides to stick around and explore. From stunning, Medieval architecture to gourmet chocolate, Belgium has some pretty stunning destinations worth considering. 

Start your Belgium itinerary in Brussels where you can stroll around one of the most beautiful medieval squares in Europe and sample some Belgian cuisine favourites like chocolates, frites and waffles.  A weekender in Bruge is also a must, a fairytale town with stunning architecture and pretty canals. 

You might also want to consider visiting Ghent for beautiful art and architecture, Dinant, a stunning little riverside town and for wellness travellers there’s Spa (yes it’s a place), the birthplace of hot springs. 

No trip to Belgium would really be complete with diving into the world of chocolate. Chocolate lover or not, dive into the world of chocolate making with fun workshops and discover how the best chocolate is made before trying some of the best treats Belgium has to offer. 

Read our One Day in Brussels to get some inspiration and start planning your trip to Belgium today.

The more I read about food, diet and health online, the more confused I get. ‘Experts’ pushing diets and programs that aren’t based on any kind of scientific evidence, fad diets, opinions and then there are all the ‘scientific’ articles to get through. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you have ever launched yourself into this world, researching what might be best for your health (which I’m pretty sure you have) then you might have also been left feeling confused and demotivated. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I feel that every 10 minutes someone’s talking about the best new way to eat and stay healthy. Of course not all of it is fiction but going through it all and even absorbing it kinda feels like a full time job. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There are a few things that have helped me however when it comes to this diet and wellness overwhelm and I wanted to share them with you today. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Firstly our diet and what we eat is very personal. No one will know more about what works for you than you so don’t take on diets and programs just because other people are trying them out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Secondly, just like the fashion industry has trends, the world of wellness and food is also beginning to see these trends. In the last 15 years so many fad diets and trends have surfaced only to be deeply buried again a few years later. These trends are just businesses that earn individuals a lot of money so be weary of them. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Trust what’s worked for humans for thousands of years. Before the invention of processed foods what did people eat? Just ask your grandparents what and how they ate. It’s this type of eating that has worked for human beings for thousands of years. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If in doubt always circle back to natural, organic, fresh food that comes directly from the earth. ✨🙏 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Have you ever felt overwhelmed when it comes to learning more about health and diet? What’s worked for you? 🙏🤗 #wellnessthatworks #selfcarefirst #selfcaretips #travelandwellness #wellnesstravel

Crisp winter walks in Alberobello. This is one of Puglia’s most visited towns, famous for its unique trullo architecture, these small dwellings go back centuries. I couldn’t help myself coming back in winter and exploring it all again. Have you heard about Alberobello? ✨ #alberobello #alberobellotrulli #alberobelloexperience #thisispuglia #pugliagram

Welcome (back) to Puglia, Italy. So excited to be back in Puglia and making it my home base for the foreseeable future ✨ After visiting for the first time last year, I noticed there’s definitely something that keeps pulling me back here. I can’t wait to dive deep into some new projects here, both long and short term and take you all along with me. Being here in January can’t be more different compared to summer but I super impatient for more sun and to explore more. Who has plans to visit the south of Italy in 2023? #pugliagram #puglia_state_of_mind #polignanoamare #polignano #polignanoamare❤️
