Background: Belgium became independent from the Netherlands in 1830 and was occupied by Germany during World Wars I and II. It has prospered in the past half century as a modern, technologically advanced European state and member of NATO and the EU. Tensions between the Dutch-speaking Flemings of the north and the French-speaking Walloons of the south have led in recent years to constitutional amendments granting these regions formal recognition and autonomy.

Ondertussen zijn we weer in ons Belgenlandje, nat en koud: welcome back, Vie! Nog even wegdromen en terugblikken op de laatste dagen Costa Rica... Donderdag in Cahuita, extra vroeg opgestaan om van de zonsopgang te kunnen genieten. Deze keer hebben we geen geluk: de regen valt met bakken uit de hemel... Maar we trekken er ons niks van aan, trekken onze zwemkleren aan en gaan zwemmen in zee, héérlijk om de dag zo te beginnen! :-D Na een lekker ontbijt en een frisse douche, stappen we in de bus naar San José. Van daaruit trekken we meteen door naar Allajuela, dat [View Full Entry]

For those of you wondering what has happened to me, this e-mail to my parents is the best I can do at this point. Sorry!!! Hi guys! I know it has been ages since I posted on the blog, but there have been some problems.
