1. Learn how to Communicate on a ‘Universal Level’ - The lack of a universal spoken language amongst exchange students calls for all students to practice communication by utilising broken words from different languages, facial expressions, verbal noises, hand expressions & various impersonations. Every day on exchange becomes a game of Charades. Entertainment at it’s best. 2. Become a Tailor/Seamstress - The Tilburg Erasmus Student Network (ESN) will adopt you for the whole semester & will keep you busy by organizing excursions, cultural activities, weekends away & brilliant theme parties every week. The theme parties - the crux of a Tilburg Exchange Students life- will impel you to be creative with costumes & designs. 3. Learn how to Ride a Bike (the Dutch way) - The Dutch are Biking Legends as they manoeuvre through the ... read more

Welcome to our travel blog. We're Noortje and Tom living in the Netherlands. For months we have been planning our trip to Patagonia (Argentia and Chile). (see trip map for details). Originally planned for beginning of this year, later we decided to move it out to November and finally December was a better choice. Hopefully we still will see (killer)whales in Puerto de Madryn despite the fact that we are there in December. One of the top events during our trip will be celebrating new years eve at the beach with our Dutch friends Mark&Ingrid and Jeroen & Dionne. Our travel agent Anderlicht www.anderlicht.nl has been of great help to get the trip planned ans organised. Via this site we'll keep you posted!... read more

Beste Lezers Het is vandaag dinsdag. Femke en ikzelf zijn onszelf steeds fanatieker aan het voorbereiden op de trip. De meeste spullen zijn al ingekocht, zoals backpack-rugzak, malerone pillen (anti-malaria) etc. Het is wel een beetje raar om zo laat in het jaar op vakantie te gaan, maar ik moet zeggen dat het me ons tot nu toe goed bevalt! Veel mensen vinden het in eerste instantie vreemd dat we laat in het jaar nog op vakantie gaan. Als we dan vervolgens vertellen dat dit komt door het typhonen-seizoen (eindigd in november), dan begrijpt iedereen het natuurlijk wel. Pfff... nog maar 3 dagen werken en dan is het zover!!! We hebben er zin in!!!! Groeten Femke en Rob.... read more

English-readers: This blog will be in Dutch only, sorry. (for friends & family) Hallo daar! De vakantie van Femke en mijzelf komt nu toch wel steeds dichterbij. Het heeft even geduurt, want ondertussen is de rest van Nederland al op vakantie geweest, maar nu gaat het er toch echt wel van komen!! Op 11 november a.s. vertrekken Femke en ik via Schiphol, Parijs en Bangkok richting Chiang Mai in het noorden van Thailand. Daar hebben we via internet al een kamer geboekt in een hostel voor twee dagen. Vanuit Chiang Mai is het idee om vrij snel de grens over te gaan bij Chiang Khong naar Laos. Van daaruit is de route verder nog niet exact bekend, maar dat zien we wel als we eenmaal onderweg zijn! Uiteindelijk trekken we in Laos steeds meer naar het ... read more

Selam millet, sizlere eindhoven izlenimlerimi aktarmak istedim:) haftasonu dayımın yanına gittim -kendisi orda yaşıyor. gözünü sewiyim walla, bahçeye mangalı koyduk köfteler pirzolalar....ohh Diyeceksiniz Türk yemeği gibisi yok, haklısınız da walla. Gerçi çok şükür aç kalmıyoruz hiç, ewde sürekli yemek pişiyo yiyoruz bişeyler ama bizim yemekler gibi olmaz tabi:) Her şey iyi hoş ama şu patates olayını bi çözemedim hollandada. Ulan herşey patates! insanın zeka gelişimini etkiler yaw. Bu kızarmış patates olayı (frit) tamam, itirazım yok, ne de olsa abur cubur... amaaa, bi de yemeklerde de ufak patatesler wardır ya, onları garnitür niyetine weriyolar. sırf restoranlarda değil, ew yemeklerinde de meraklılar patatese (aardappeltje deniyo). geçenlerde bana titreme geldi "yeter bea patates yemicez bu ay" diyerek tawrımı ortaya koydum:)) neyse ama mutluyuz şu an:) Onun dışında eindhoven'da şun... read more

We got up, did our best to cool off in the showers, and packed and headed south... On the map, we had seen this amazing highway built right on an atlantic wall - a huge dike holding back the sea. We didn't realize it was 3 meters below sea level on one side. So driving thru, there was not much to see of the Atlantic ocean on our right (just the wall), but on our left was a huge below-sea-level inland lake/sea! We could have made a stop half-way to climb the wall and have a look at the atlantic, but feeling so hot, we didn't want to stop and walk around in our Draggin' Jeans. We stopped by the city of Delft, famous for its porcelein works, copied (and improved?) from China long ago. In ... read more

Hey guys, I'm in Holland. Sorry no photos anymore :( Nevermind, I will show them all to you when I get back home. I've been going to work with Mario, driving around in his truck seeing lots of Holland and taking plenty of photos. We went to an amusement park it was quiet so Mario and I rode the roller coaster for over an hour without getting off. We went to a war museum and later that same day we went and saw the aftermath of celebrations for PSV's championship. These people are Soccer mad! Contiki starts next week I can't wait. ... read more

This has been the first chance I have had in the Netherlands to sit and type something. We have no problems accessing the internet to upload anything, we have just been too busy having fun to set aside some time for typing! So, this will be a quick update because in the next half hour or so we will either be out bicycle riding, walking, driving or something - today is too nice to waste in front of a laptop. The following covers the period from 22nd to 29th October, later today we will visit Gert and Henny, then tomorrow we are off to Wageningen to see Bert and Bianca. Then on Monday we drive to Frankfurt airport for Lorenza to get her flight home. But for now, on with the update …. The fashion police ... read more
