Aankomst Dirk, Dimitri , Dries , Katrien en Martine. Lekker gegeten en vroeg gaan slapen want ze waren allemaal moe van de lange vlucht. Ikzelf ben al een tijdje in Rwanda.

About me
The Belgian (globe)trotter is the blog of Michiel (Michael in Dutch), born in Antwerp, Belgium in 1981.
I’ve had the privilege of traveling already to a lot of countries around the world. For one because I like to travel and see new things but also because, as a kid, I lived in different countries. (to name a few: Kenya, South Africa, UAE, Switzerland)
This blog is actually meant to be a digital collection of things I noted during my stays in these countries. It could prove handy to people wanting to go to these countries and happen to stumble upon this blog.
Professionally, I’m a Implementation Consultant specialized in business solutions. (especially Microsoft Dynamics AX) and a freelance web developer.
I also love photography. Check out my Gallery or showcase ![]()
