Life of a Passion in Belgium - Life of a Passion

Belgium is my home country and also the home of delicious chocolate, fries, beer, and waffles. Let me introduce you to Belgium! Belgium is surrounded by France, Luxembourg, Germany, and the Netherlands. We also have a coastline and the Ardennes that are very popular among tourists. Our country can be split into 4 parts: the capital, Flanders, Wallonia, and the East Cantons. Why? Because we have 3 national languages: Dutch, French, and German.

P.S. You can see more photos on my Instagram!
