Baudouin Falmagne was born in Namur in July 1953. With a background in science and management (ULB), he pursued a career in sales in the ITC sector. Fascinated by ancient Egypt, he has devoted the last seven years to studying the Amarna period in detail, learning to read hieroglyphics, and visiting Egyptian museums. He is a regular lecturer on Nile cruises organized by Voyages de La Libre.

Ancient Egypt has always held a fascination for those who have studied the history of this civilization, which dates back more than 5,000 years. The young Belgium was no exception to this rule, with the honeymoon trip to Egypt of the future King Leopold II and his wife in 1855.
This attraction to Egypt also won over major industrialists such as Baron Empain and, of course, the first Belgian Egyptologists.
One of the highlights of this adventure was undoubtedly the trips made by Queen Elisabeth of Belgium in 1923 and 1930 during the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb.
