mykonos memories

Mykonos - 2nd & 3rd of June 2025

In the late eighties we went on our very first holiday together to the Greek Cyclades, with a backpack and the first island we set foot on was Mykonos. A special and fairytale island for both of us and we were delighted to see all the unique places and most of them are still authentic and unchanged.

What a dream to be back here.

Minne turned 30 today!

I can hardly believe it, how fast did that go?!

He is passionate sports journalist, a wonderful son, the dearest brother and also loving uncle of Liam nowadays.

30 years ago Minne was born and today there's another mini in the crib, the circle of life.

Annual photo book tradition since 2007.

After 72 analogue photo albums from 1986, digital photography took over.

We missed browsing through our photo albums and started to make one printed photo book every year. Thousands of photos to choose from and we reduced it to 170 full-page photos of 2021! You can 'browse' the book on my Instagram account.

What a year. It won't get any crazier. It started in january with Henks heart attack and 65 seconds without a heartbeat. Thereafter sometimes pulse 180 because of the excitement and beautiful and emotional moments.

We went to Amsterdam, Antwerp, Olhao, Aljezur, Vila do Bispo, Paris, Bari, Ostuni, Puglia, Marrakech and Barcelona. We enjoyed the days with our family, friends, new friendships and of course there was the birth of our grandson Liam-Novi in November.

Let's forget the 'shit' and only remember the good things of last year and face 2022 with hope, joy and new plans. Very much looking forward to 'normal life', freedom, family time, travel and love.

Now it's time to hit the play button for 2022!

Best wishes to you all have a great year!
