Day 17 and 18 Salsa in Amsterdam, party in Gent

Hi guys!

The last two days have been around a lot of parties. First I went to Amsterdam in the Netherlands to this Salsa club with some guys, a lot of fun, and then the day after to Gent in Belgium for a big street-festival. (Plus that it was Belgium’s national holiday which meant big fireworks!)

The red-light district… no… it’s not that it has become super fashionable to have big windows with red lights suddenly…

Us sitting and watching the fireworks… the dog is called Napoleon and apparently he thought I needed to have my ear cleaned…IMG_0512

Some really nice girls that I med during the night. They where in a group that did virtual reality theater… kind of cool!

Day 13 Hanging out in Gent (Belgium)

Hi all, I reached Gent today, hitchhiking here was quite a lot easier, had one guy drive me out of Luxembourg and to a big gas station, there I found a trucker driving cheese to Bruges who took me a long stretch of the way and dropped me off at a big gas-station. Here I found another truck who drove me to the outskirts of the city and then I just had to walk a bit to get to the centrum (a couple of kilometers).

I still get that delirious joy-feeling every time someone stops and picks me up. I guess one reason is that I smile so much when I am looking for rides that my whole body tunes into being really happy or something… well a great feeling at least!

Me, my host Britt and the guy to the left is who I am going to stay with on Tuesday when I get back to Gent 😀IMG_0407
