Dana knows what it feels like to walk in my shoes (well, walk...)  

End of Days

I know I haven't updated for a while, but that is mainly because I am trying to enjoy my last weeks in Granada as much as possible. I am still having great fun over here with Dana. We kind of created a routine that never seems to become boring... We eat lots of tapas, enjoy every ray of sun, walk a lot, go shopping, etc., etc. Tonight we are going to see a Flamenco show, something that I've been wanting to do for a long time. Only 5 days to go and then it is time to pack our bags and go back to Holland... I'll definitely miss this place a lot. Life here is so relaxing, the weather is usually wonderful and the city is still as entertaining and gorgeous as the first time I came here... I really hope I can return here one day and live in Andalusia for a longer period of time. I am in love with this place... To all you people who checked this website regularly: thanks! I know I'll see some of you guys very soon in Groningen/Amsterdam/Sneek... To the international visitors: I am not sure, but I am thinking about starting a new website when I am back in Groningen.. You will hear more about it soon! Until then: Buen Suerte y Buenos Noches!

A Nice Compromise

I love hiking. Dana doesn't. Well, at least not as much as me. So it takes some effort to make her climb hills every day. It turned out to be easier than I thought to convince her. Now we climb for an hour and then, on top of a hill, we sit down on a blanket, open a pack of wine, lay down in the sun and play poker. Me happy because we climbed, Dana happy because she gets a nice tan. Perfect... ;)

"Who Do We Have To Kill Next?"

Looking Up At the Queen

No Curtains, No Glass? Get Me Another Palace!

I Guess I Shouldn't Have Touched That Slave Girl in Front of the Queen...

Me posing outside my house.. But WTF am I doing? Did I just grab my crotch when Dana pushed the button? We cannot show that picture to our parents!!! Another try... 

Better...;) 

Dana checks out my house when we arrive in Granada and seems to be impressed. "It's that big!" Or does she think she can fly?

Find Dana in Dali's weird work of art.... 

Me on top of one the towers of the Sagrada Familia. Contemplating? If I don't smile I always seem to be in deep thoughts... ;) 

Sagrada Dana in front of Sagrada Familia. What an amazing building...

Instead of going straight to Granada, we decided to fly through Barcelona and pay our good friend Montse a visit. She was very busy with her exams, but it wasn't hard to convince her to party with us! After all, she is a MOAH girl... She showed us some beautiful places in Barcelona and took us to some nice bars and restaurants. Like this one on the picture: a Kebab restaurant were we had to take our shoes off and sit on the floor...

Me in the Winter Garden in Krasnapolsky. This is were they serve breakfast. Best I ever had in my life. Yes, we spoiled ourselves to death for two days! (Thanks Melina!) 

Yes! I am back! After spending Christmas and New Year in my hometown in Frisia (and in Groningen), I finally started travelling again. It still took a while before I updated this website, mainly because the last two weeks have been crazy. First I got invited for a job interview right before I planned to go back to Spain. Then two days later I picked up Dana from Schiphol Airport. Only 24 hours later I was on my way to Groningen again for my second interview, this time with the Chairman of the Board of the Hanze University. To cut a long story short: I got the job! Soon I'll be the Main Editor of 'de Hanze', the student paper of the Hanze University... Sweet. That same night me and Dana celebrated in style: We booked a hotelroom in Krasnapolsky, a five star hotel on the Dam in Amsterdam. My friend Thijs provided the Champagne, Krasnapolsky provided the rest of the luxury. The day Dana arrived, we met up with my parents in Hotel Americain and had a great diner. For those of you who didnt know: the people on this picture are my mom and dad!  

Almost Back

Be patient, I am still in Holland 'enjoying' the great weather. I will go back to Spain though, don't you worry! Somewhere at the end of January you should start paying attention to my website again. I might have some company with me then, who knows...
