Landlord Anke: "One day I will wake up with a view of the sea", I predicted
As a child, I didn't particularly like the sand between my toes. But when I was 22 and I walked on the beach in Ostend, I knew for sure: one day I would not only walk on the beach, but also look at it from my lazy chair and keep looking. I can still hear myself saying: "Later, when I wake up here in the weekend with a view of the sea, then...", not the slightest hesitation, not even a "maybe".
In retrospect, quite a bold statement for a student whose house-garden-child-tree-life had yet to begin. "One day dreams will come true, as long as you believe in them", I sang along with Kinderen voor Kinderen over and over again as a child. Maybe I owe it to the fact that I believed in it so much, because in 100 I became the owner of the apartment. Since then, I do indeed regularly wake up at the weekend with a view of the sea.
Landlord Anke: "Fantastic to dive into the waves every day"
"Do you love the sea or the mountains more?" I never really knew what to answer when people asked me that question. As a child, I went hiking in the mountains with my parents, holiday after holiday. Even after that, I kept seeking out the vastness of the mountains. I loved the mountain tops. Their beauty and power. But the sea also attracted me. I enjoyed days in and around the water.
When I met Anke in Ostend, I immediately fell in love. With Anke and with the sea. The sea: its vastness, its beauty, its power. Just like the mountains, but close by. In addition to our passion for each other, Anke and I have also shared a passion for the sea ever since. As the icing (or is it passion fruit?) on the cake, I became the owner of the Loft, with a view of the most wonderful swimming pool in the world. Those who walk by regularly see me diving into the waves. Fantastic right!
