As the sun dipped below the horizon at WECANDANCE in Zeebrugge, a decade of magic and music converged on the sandy shores. This year, 2023, marked the festival's remarkable 10th anniversary and therefore founder Bart Roman had a surprise in store that added an enchanting touch to the celebration. Nestled amidst the dunes was a hidden gem, a secret dive bar that whispered tales of artistic camaraderie, partnerships, and the essence of friendship & family.

Fate had a different plan for me than I intended back in 2014, as life does with many of us. My life unintentionally steered me towards a blend of aesthetics and hospitality rather than solely graphic design. Now, in the summer of 2023, I stand at a new crossroads, embracing ‘Broos’ as a freelancer, where the fragile essence of hospitality, wine and beyond can meet through projects and collaborations.
