I speak English, Dutch and some German
I am a filmmaker
Hi, I’m Helle Monne - a friendly Ghent local who loves the city’s perfect blend of medieval charm and modern creativity. You’ll often find me wandering through the historic center, browsing second-hand stores for hidden treasures, or catching a local film or music event. Ghent is full of character, and I adore how each corner tells a story. I know the city’s art, architecture, and cultural history inside out - and I’m always excited to share my favorite spots for books, food, wine, and those peaceful, scenic walks that make Ghent so special.
