Stunning photos show Belgian man's love for his new home in Canada
Victor Aerden is Belgian physiotherapist and hobby photographer who has fallen in love with the wide open spaces and natural beauty that Canada is known for. Aerden became so fascinated with our country’s unique landscape that he’s decided to make it his permanent home.

On a post he wrote for Bored Panda, he explains how his transition from Belgium to Canada has also been an opportunity to explore his passion for photography.
“I’m in the process of moving from the small, flat and heavy populated but cosy country of Belgium to the giant, beautiful and not so populated country of Canada,” he said.
“About a year ago I bought my first camera. I’ve been exploring my new home through it, trying to improve my photography along the way.”
A quick look at Aerden’s Instagram page shows that the soon to be proud Canadian resident certainly has been busy exploring his surroundings.

This collection of beautiful snapshots is a nice reminder that there’s plenty of Canada available to explore, you just need to get out there and find it.
