Hier een eerst korte boodschap om te zorgen dat mijn travelblog door de webbie van dienst geaccepteerd wordt. Ik vertrek 1 juli, om 1 maand les te geven in Non Soong, Isaan, het Noord-Oostelijke gedeelte van Thailand, met de schitterende organisatie VOLUNTHAI ! Daarna zal ik nog rond reizen, om op 12 augustus middernacht, de verjaardag van koningin Sirikit, terug naar Gent te komen. ... read more

And again a great party!!! We still feel so excited and happy, it is great to have a group of friends and family around us, that supports our decision of making a future together! Thanks to all of you!! March 30 2007 was a special day, a beautiful day, and we were lucky to have the sun with us! And after a tasty brunch with the family, and some hours of getting dressed, putting make-up, spoil ourselves, finally we could go to the town hall, were the mayor was waiting for us! And, honestly, that was a bit a strange feeling there. Everything so official, Kalu and I were not prepared for that! But only 15 minutes later, we could say “Yes, I do” to each other, give the rings, and a big kiss, and ... read more

Dag allemaal! A long time ago we wrote something on our web blog! I am in Belgium now, and we are busy preparing our wedding here (March 30!!) Since I have been in Belgium, weather has been really nice and sunny, but also very bad and cold weather too! At this moment it is just great, so I love it! Nice weather, good beer, the best fries and chocolate, nice sasu (mother in law, she is sitting next to me…) and a beautiful wife! What else I need! I’m getting fat, but not too bad: playing volleyball twice a week, mountain biking a lot, jogging often, and going out too much! Parties all the time, drinking Leffe all the time (my favorite beer). And also Leen is doing well. She found a good job in psychiatry, ... read more

YES !!! At last... I've got em... the tickets to heaven... In just a little over 4.250.000 seconds (indeed, I started the countdown right away - lol) I will say good bye to Belgium for about 5 weeks. 5 weeks which, if it depends on me, can last forever since I've been to New Caledonia twice before... So I know well what I will see and feel and touch and smell and taste... CAN'T WAIT... hhmmm... just a little less than 4.250.000 seconds to go... ... read more

Belgium! Back in Belgium! Kalu is not yet here, but he will in a few weeks! A long but good flight, and my last days in KTM were also good! But I miss it!!!! Belgium is cloudy, cold, and quiet! Very different than Nepal! But of course lot’s of nice things too: no unhealthy air, more time to relax, the friends and family around … And we are full time planning our wedding here! Well, no time to type a lot here, because too many friends I have to visit, and in the meantime I have to try to find a job too! The plan is to stay at my parent’s house; we all like to hang out together! In the meantime Kalu is spending time with his family and hopefully he can kayak a bit ... read more

To avoid the crowds of tourists and chocolate shops on every corner of Brugge, we made a day trip to Ghent. It's mainly a university town and was quite deserted given the time of year. It's a pretty Belgian town and I'm sure it's much more vibrant when all the students are around. Worth the 30 minute train trip.... read more

Maybe I didn't realize what I was getting myself into, or maybe I knew exactly what I was doing. You be the judge. ESN, or Erasmus Student Network, is a group of local volunteers who help organize activities and social events for foreign students here in Gent. I'm on their e-mail list, and here's the e-mail that caught my attention: GHENT BY NIGHT Wednesday 15 march there will be the ‘Ghent by night’ city tour. We leave at 20.00 at de brug. Your tour guides will be Petrus and David. What to expect - The most beautiful places in Ghent by night. - The best bars in Ghent (This means not the bars in the overpoort). - All kinds of useless information concerning Ghent, bears and bars. - Some of the best bears and drinks in ... read more
