- At the moment, Belgium is fighting against the autumn wave of the Corona. The infection and hospitalization are on the rise and many protective measures are on their way back. It has become obligatory to have the Vaccination Certificate with you as you move around in the country.
- Autumn, the ’season of mists and mellow fruitfulness’ is here! The nature is putting on a very attractive and colourful garment despite all the harm that we humans inflict upon her. The days are becoming shorter and nights longer and darker, and the temperature is getting cooler day by day.
