Pullman Brussels Airport Diegem

Ok, so apparently free wi-fi is a thing of the past in "major" airports. Apparently a thing of the present is not one, not two, but three layers of security checks. But we are almost ready to go here in Belgium -- I've had my last chocolate croissant (sniff) and little cute coffee, and off we go. 

The EuroSim finished up nicely -- the Ski...

Notre amie vit dans une grande précarité. Elle n'a pas Internet, pas le téléphone (parce que tous ses colocs ont des cells). Elle a une chambre en béton pas chauffée, avec un évier, une table et un lit individuel de camp. Elle dort dans son sac de couchage. Elle n'a pas encore fait son inscription à l'université même si elle va aux cours. Elle e...

Tuesday I was back at the gym on Tuesday and decided to set myself a bit of a challenge. I keep missing Body Combat recently and needed to give myself an aim on the cross trainer.

Dear Friends, Well, I am now officially a world traveler. Although I don't remember much of it, as my owners drugged me heavily, I successfully made my first flight. My very chic transporting bag is now covered with stickers from the USA, Italia and of course my new homeland, Belgium. I like my apartment, it has a very big glass window looking o...

What crazy place! If ever there was a country to eat your way around in outside ...

Last night I paid 18 Euros to stay in a campsite in the middle of nowhere, which makes me feel much better about paying 15 Euros tonight for a bed near the centre of Brussels. With an 0830 start and only 35km to cover I was in Brussels by midday, despite the hills of doom. I stopped at the first open internet cafe I saw, concerned that, it being...

Hello everyone. We were hoping to include some pictures from Rock Werchter but we still don't have internet access at home. We applied to get DSL but now have to wait about 1 month until it is installed - pretty annoying but this is a beaurocratic country so why would getting DSL be any different? Anyways, pictures will follow shortly (I hope) b...
