Thank you from the bottom of my heart
After many wonderful years by your side, Le Jardin des Secrets will close its doors at the end of December.
This adventure was made possible thanks to you: your visits, your smiles, your encouragement and the trust you placed in me. Every encounter made this place much more than just an address: a little corner of Namur where it was always a pleasure to stop by.
It is with great emotion that I turn this page. I would like to warmly thank each and every one of you for the moments we shared.
I still have a few weeks left to welcome you, and it will be a pleasure to see you again before the end of the year.
See you very soon, and thank you again for everything.

Secrets and gardens
Many stories have a tale to be told: Gardens are a place of secrets. They think and whisper without causing any disturbance in their surroundings.
Maybe it is the gold buried deep beneath, down there, near the old coach house…
Maybe. The secrets are concealed under the trees, on a bench in a daydream, a kiss, a conversation, leaving memories and poetry in the air of the branches.
Memories have the distinction of never being linked to the places where the gardens are invisible fortresses. They sometimes offer this silent inspiration for some worms, a sculpture, a painting, some contemplation.
The secrets have their gardens, as not everything can be made, created, or done anywhere. Space separates places by its mind. Some spaces, like some lights, have their source of genius. The spirit of the place makes you feel. It invites. It breathes. It wraps and soothes. It makes you smile with ease and charges the relation of time. Space expands, but the stars approach.
We stroll in the gardens, we rest ourselves, we reconnect with the elements, we discuss and we reflect. The universe is so vast, yet keeps such a low profile, and for that, we plant, trim and gather the mysteries of life. Each season transforms the garden and passes the secrets onto the next.
"Le Jardin des Secrets" is a temple of peace where you are happy to return as another person.
