About Me
- Jientje
- Antwerp, Belgium
- Welcome to the new, and improved version of Heaven in Belgium. I am Jientje. "Jientje", like the boys name Gene, followed by "chu"? "Gene-chu", that's how you pronounce my name. Yes!!!!That's it!! So now you know huh? I am an addicted blogger. I was born and raised and am still living in Belgium. Yeah, the "this-is- Tuesday-so-this-must-be-Brussels" kind of Belgium .. There, you see? Maybe you couldn't find it on the map, but at least I'm trying to change that a little by sharing lots of pictures. I really love to cook and create new things, like this blog for instance. I am a mother,a grandmothe and a wife too! They say I'm a traveler, and a photographer. Well that's just what they say, I love to make pictures, but I am far from professional ... If my English is not perfect, that would be because it's my second language. I do hope you'll forgive me any possible misspellings or strange vocabulary ... Now, as a result of all of the above, I get way too little sleep and my days are always much too short!

Street Views in Provence, Saignon
Over the years, on the many walks through small villages in Provence I took photos of street views. Some of the houses, windows and doors are beautifully decorated with flowers and plants, and I can never get past them without taking pictures.
Over the next couple of weeks, this is what I intend to share on Thursdays ....
This is one of the tiny streets of Saignon, a little perched village 3 km southeast of Apt.

Oh, what a gorgeous, gorgeous blue!! I love that little house. And that last picture is a treat, with the selective focus on the hydrangea!
I'm expecting to take many similar pictures on my Italian holiday soon!
it looks like a fairy tale :)
What a stunning blue! I also like the distressed feeling of the wood and texture of the rocks. Gorgeous photos!
What a beautiful shade of blue! i get the impression that the door is very low..maybe short people live inside? BTW your reflection in the window looks cool too..haha
Everything looks so inviting, neat and well kept. Love the shutter on the window.
I read to fast. Thought saigon missing the extra n. But seeing this pictures it must be the south of france. Great colors.
It all looks so lovely. I really do not have the right words to express myself. Gorgeous.
Oh, these photos just take me away to a place so peaceful and cozy. Love to look at them!
Lovely!!! The blues of the wood and greys of the stones work so well to creat the perfect place!
Lovely vignettes Jientje!
What a beautiful and quaint spot. Very nicely photographed.
Darryl and Ruth :)
Any chance I can get permission to re-print the blue door photo on canvas and put it in my home? It reminds me of everything I loved about Provence when I lived there.
