Here are the questions:

Name:
Nationality:
Age:
When did you visit Flanders?
Did you visit Antwerp – Bruges – Ghent – Leuven – Malines?
With who did you visit (family, friends, …)?

  1. What do you think of Flanders?
  2. What do you think of Flemings?
  3. From a tourist point of view:
a.       What do you think is important?
b.      What strikes you?
c.       What are our (Flanders) strong points?
d.      What are you missing in Flanders, in comparison of your own country? And in comparison to other countries you have visited?

Renovation

Dear readers,

I need your help. Again. This time it's not something serieus. It's fun!

In a few months, my room will be painted again and I'll get new furniture too. Now I'd like to add a little extra to my room, with the cool wall stickers. The problem is, I can't choose! So, I'll need your help to choose the coolest stickers! 

Japanese girls
Two little birds (white and red on black)
Two little birds (black and white on red)
Curly tree with peace bird
Bamboo

It's only these five, but since the aren't that cheap, I can't choose all of them. As you can see, my walls will be red and black. Not really black. More chocolate color. The colors look different on the screen unfortunatly.

So, if anyone likes a specific sticker, let me know! Vote vote vote!

Thank you!

Crazy dream

Dear readers,

I had the craziest dream ever. Really, really weird. Knowing that our dreams are only a few seconds of our sleep, this was a pretty long dream.

I don't remember where it started but one moment we were in the car in some distant land. There appeared to be some rebellions who didn't want any foreigners so they would kill them. All of the sudden, some rebellion got his gun to my head, and right when he was about to shoot, he got interfered and distracted by the police. The police arrested us too, but we could escape to a place where the foreigners were still welcomed. To our big surprise, Ryan Higa (NigaHiga) and Kev Jumba (KevJumba) were there, and they (a kinda forgot how) invited us to their appartment. Appearantly Spudgy (eatyourkimchi) and some others from the YTF (check them out!) were there too. So I hung out with these really cool people and had to be in their new youtube video.

Really really weird if you would've dreamt it yourself!

That's all for today. Check out my previous post too, because I need your help! Thank you!

I need your help!

Dear readers,

I need your help!

For an assignement at school, I have to interview tourists who have been in Flanders before. So if you have ever been in Antwerp, Bruges, Ghent, Leuven or Mechelen, please let me know! I'll send you a few questions to answer, it doesn't take that much time.

And for all Belgians who ever booked a citytrip at a travel agency, it would be great if you can participate too. I'll send some questions, and this won't take a while either.

PLEASE if you can help me, do it! I have to find 30 people each, so it would be great if I can find a few here! ^_^

And if you don't meet these conditions, but you know someone who does, SEND THEM HERE. I will be really really greatful! :)

Thank you in advance!

School work :(

Dear readers,

I don't know what to write, but since it has been a week already, I should really write something!

I got many assignements, groupworks and stuff, so I don't have anything fun to say.
For English, I have to know everything about an English-speaking country. I chose Hong Kong.
For Geography, I have to do groupwork on a region from a list, where we develop a trip to this destination. Since Sophie already had an assignement on Hong Kong and I was going to do one on that too, we picked Hong Kong again.
For Art, I have to talk about a UNESCO world heritage, and I chose to do that about the old city of Kyoto.
For English, French and Spanish integrated, we have to do a groupwork on how touroperators in Great-Brittan, France and Spain promote our country.

So yeah, I've got a lot of work to do! Oh and then there's the groupwork where we have to start our own tourist company. I really hate that one...

This is it for today.

Write you later!

Cupcake decorations

Dear readers,

I made cupcake decorations today. For the first time ever. And probably for the last time ever too!
For some reason I just can't do this.

I went to visit my niece, and she asked if I wanted to help her. So we colored the marzipan (which was already pretty hard for me), and then she said 'Oh just make something, it doesn't matter what'. But hell that wasn't an easy task to do! The best thing I could come up with in the end was this:

Say hello to my green rocking catmonsterthingy!

So as you can see, this really sucks! So I'll probably not do any decorations anymore and stick to baking brownie cake, making chocolate mousse, and truffles. Or simply said: chocolate!

This is all I have to share with you all today.
