Camping in De Ardennen

Well, what should I say? It all started completely spontaneous again.. Since my boyfriend and I didn’t really had time for each other when I was in Belgium with my girls, I wanted to go again to Belgium and spend some time with him. But when should one do that when one have to work…




Antwerp And Goodbye

Where should I start? I just finished my arrival and I’m really tired, but too young and proud to sleep at 6PM. So here’s my new Blog-Entry about my first day and all impressions I’ve made. My alarm clock rang at 6.30AM and I got really exited about the tought that I would going to…




Letzte Vorbereitungen

Wie packe ich für ein Jahr? Wie unterscheiden sich deutsche und belgische Sitten? Wo ist meine restliche Zeit hin??? Ja, ich bin es, noch in Deutschland und noch auf Deutsch, obwohl ich gesagt habe “das nächste mal in Belgien, das nächste mal auf Englisch“. But here I am in Germany, writing in German again. Ich…
