Hot Glass Alley
Hot Glass Alley is the first glass blowing studio in Charlotte, NC! So glad I got the opportunity to share Jake's story and how he started his passion of blowing glass. It was amazing to talk to him and get to know him better. His story is very motivational and will definitely make you shed a tear.
Fun fact: this segment won the 2019 National Emmy (NATAS) for the Serious News Category and 1st Place in the 2019 National Scholastic Press Association for Broadcast Feature Story.
Enjoy!
From the Train Station to the Center in Ghent - Belgium 4K Travel Channel
On a Sunday, we use the opportunity to take the tram to Gent-Sint-Pieters station. It is the first Sunday of the month, the shops are open for business, and the public transport in Ghent is free! An exemplary service!
The tram stop is under the modern buildings which are also part of the station. Only a few steps away is the historic train station, built for the world exhibition in 1913. The entrance hall impresses by its pretty mosaics.
In front of the station is a small park around a monument. The square was named Queen Maria Hendrikaplein after the queen of the same name. The square houses as well a bicycle parking, many German cities could be proud of something like this. An organic market is currently taking place at the square.
We return to Bagattenstraat and pass the cultural center Vooruit. It is the heart of cultural life in Ghent and houses a theater too.
Just around the corner in the Lammerstraat, we arrive at a modern dark building, called De Krook. We are in the middle of the cultural life of the city. The architecturally notable building is a library and a meeting place for those interested in culture and innovation.
The Woodrow Wilsonplein, a mighty square, is lined with shopping centers and various cultural buildings. We lose orientation a bit and land at the Sint-Annakerk and turn into the Brabantdam.
On the way, we suddenly come across a small covered pedestrian passage, the Glass Alley. In the first moment, we consider it to be a shopping mall, but it quickly turns out to be a red-light district.
From Lieven Bauwensplein, we have a beautiful view of the castle complex of Kasteel Geeraard de Duivelsteen. Due to his dark skin, the original owner Count Geeraad Vilain had the name Geeraard the Devil.
But we turn back and go to the flower market at the Kouter. Since it is Sunday and thus market day, there are also a lot of beautiful plants to admire and buy.
Opposite the opera of Gent, we stop briefly at the Tea-Room Rigoletto and have a snack.

Wir nutzen die Gelegenheit am Sonntag und nehmen die Straßenbahn zum Bahnhof Gent-Sint-Pieters. Gelegenheit deshalb, da am ersten Sonntag im Monat die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel in Gent kostenlos sind! Es ist verkaufsoffener Sonntag. Ein wirklich vorbildlicher Service!
Die Haltestelle der Straßenbahn liegt unter modernen Gebäuden, die ebenfalls Teil des Bahnhofs sind. Nur wenige Schritte entfernt befindet sich aber der historische Bahnhof. Er wurde zur Weltausstellung 1913 erbaut. Die Eingangshalle ist mit wunderschönen Mosaiken geschmückt.
Vor dem Bahnhof befindet sich ein kleiner Park rund um ein Denkmal. Der Platz ist nach Königin Maria Hendrikaplein benannt. Er dient auch als Fahrradparkplatz, auf den viele deutsche Städte stolz sein könnten. Auf dem Platz findet gerade ein Bio-Markt statt.
Wir kehren zurück bis zur Bagattenstraat und stoßen direkt auf das Kulturzentrum Vooruit. Es ist das Herz des Kulturlebens in Gent. Es beinhaltet auch ein Theater.
Direkt um die Ecke in der Lammerstraat stoßen wir auf den modernen dunklen Bau De Krook. Wir befinden uns im Herzen des Kulturzentrums der Stadt. Das architektonisch herausragende Bauwerk ist eine Bibliothek und ein Treffpunkt für Kultur- und Innovations- Interessierte.
Der Woodrow Wilsonplein, ein mächtiger Platz, ist eingesäumt von Einkaufszentren und diversen Kulturgebäuden. Wir verlieren etwas die Orientierung und landen bei der Sint-Annakerk und biegen in den Brabantdam ein.
Unterwegs stoßen wir unvermittelt auf eine kleine überdachte Fußgängerpassage, die Glass Alley. Im ersten Moment halten wir sie für eine Einkaufspassage, die sich jedoch rasch als Rotlichtbezirk entpuppt.
Vom Lieven Bauwensplein haben wir einen schönen Blick auf die Burganlage
Kasteel Geraard de Duivelsteen. Der ursprüngliche Besitzer, Graf Geeraad Vilain wurde wegen seiner dunklen Hautfarbe Geeraard der Teufel genannt.
Wir kehren aber wieder um und gehen zum Blumenmarkt am Kouter. Da Sonntag ist und damit Markttag, sind auch jede Menge wunderschöner Pflanzen zu bewundern und zu erwerben.
Gegenüber der Oper von Gent machen wir im Cafe Rigoletto kurz halt und nehmen einen kleinen Imbiss zu uns.

Antwerp's Red Light District
is an all new web page on my site. There is an interactive map linking to over 60 photos plus much more. Photos of Antwerp's red light district has previously been scarce. Well not any more. Mine cover virtually every red light window, sex shop, peep show as well as general street views etc.
A breakthrough rather than a breakdown: platforms of expression
Full documentary about the importance of creating meeting places, artistic hubs, and platforms to release the energy inside. Isolation and its consequences can be prevented from happening by providing spaces where not only encounters with other people take place but also with oneself.
Talents just need a platform.

LEADIN
The first international Diamond Fair to be held in the Belgium city of Antwerp is underway.
Despite the global financial crisis hitting sales of diamonds in Europe and the United States, the Indian and Chinese markets are going from strength to strength.
STORYLINE
A 25 carat diamond - the centrepiece of this glittering event.
What it''s worth isn''t being made public, but it''s estimated to be more than 100,000 Euros (approx. $137,000 USD).
This fair - the first of its kind in Antwerp - was by invitation only in the hope of attracting new customers.
It''s also a way to reaffirm Antwerp''s role in the diamond business, as the first selling place in the world.
Antwerp''s had to adapt to changes in the diamond market, and to deal with major new players such as China and India.
The city had over 10,000 diamond cutters in 1930, there are now around 1,500. Currently India is the leading diamond cutting centre of the world. 9 out of 10 diamonds in the world are cut in India.
Arthur Beller, President of the Antwerp Diamond Bourse, says the Asian market is key:
It runs February 7-9.

Brasserie Pakhuis Gent
Brasserie Pakhuis is located in a cosy alley with the towers of Ghent in the background. On entering, you are overwhelmed by the enormous space that still reflects the atmosphere of this former warehouse. Portuguese architect Antoine Pinto gave the building its distinctive warm character. The unique combination of a 600 square meters storage space with the specifically designed interior is what distinguishes Brasserie Pakhuis from any other restaurant.
And even more so, the restaurant's fresh, contemporary tinted French-Italian cuisine. Brasserie Pakhuis also serves royal oyster and seafood dishes, which can be accompanied by a French classic or a glass of excellent wine from the New World.
