So, whom do we have here? Well, it's the germanophile and suedophile Veerle, my travelling companion! We will be going to Germany together a week in the end of the month to bike along the Rhine river from Karlsruhe to Heidelsheim. So we're training now in the beautiful forests of Belgium as you can see. We were out for about 2 hours, after which I dropped on my bed after müsli and a loooong shower to warm myself up a little bit (the weather isn't really warm in spite of the new so-to-say-summery month). I guess I have strained myself physically some the last days, with my trip to Wallonia and everything (here's a link for the Swedish readers). After that I had a less pleasant experience at work: deliberatie. It's a part of the Flemish school system. You sit together with your colleagues and the director and decide what students should be sacked or not. I returned home with tears in my eyes but distracted myself with a book, some tea, the nice view over the garden and some chats with my housemates. Oh dear, I see I'm tiring you with unsignificant details who are very far from monumentum aere perennius... Good night!
