Sint Martens Latem area

Welcome to the Belgian Hollywood.

Sint Martens Latem is not even 10km far from Gent. Just by taking a look at the street that connects these two areas one can notice that he is stepping into a different” world”. Lexus, Ferrari, Porsche, Mercedes and Rovers are some of the cars you can buy on the way to Latem…

But then you see the houses and the gardens and you realize it all…

I’ve been discovering this area with two opposite thoughts in my mind. On one hand, it’s impossible not to admire the lovely beautiful rich houses and to wonder how their inside should be or what a big party you would give there, If you would live there… On the other hand I wonder if this people really worked hard for it and if they actually take benefit from all the luxury they have. And it’s inevitable not to think… some people with so much, and others living with so much less.

But still, everybody is able to appreciate the beauty.
