So glad you made it to Brugge, my hometown. Castle Ten Berghe is only 5 minutes away from where I live and I only found out about it through the Chateaux Diaries. But yeh, there are so many chateaux in the neighbourhood. Belgium has most chateaux per square meter in Europe! The medieval Village on the way to the castle is Damme. The straight canals with huge trees were dug out at the time Napoleon ruled. After this vlog I realize again the beauty of the area I live and grew up in. For people looking to buy a chateaux in Belgium: the one of the antique dealer who was in Drew Pritchard's antiques programm when he visited Belgium is for sale!

Oh how wonderful! You helped me relive my beautiful months spent in spectacular Bruges, as a Boutique Hotel manager back in 2011. It truly is one of the prettiest places I've ever lived in and it was incredibly inspiring for me as a writer. Whenever I had a spare moment, I would take pen and paper to the beer garden by the canal, or watch the tango dancers in the ancient fish market, then jot down my thoughts about all the wonder I saw about me. Such a poetic city!
