LEIDEN

I'm writing this post while lying on the couch. Sooo really tired because of work, but more important, LEIDEN. It was awesome! Manon and i were staying at my cousins student flat. We got a day off to visit the university  (instead of going to school) so we decided to use the opportunity to discover the student life (or actually, the festivities).

We used our iPhone navigation to find our way through the city by night, but the only result was us walking around like flibbertijibbets (yeah that's right, i've been watching The Sound of Music lately). Well, it wasn't a pity actually. I love Leiden at night! The canals, bridges, old little houses and the fact that the centre is completely taken over by students make Leiden one of the cosiest cities in the Netherlands. Like last night, when two guys were walking around dressed like santa Claus and no one gave a damn, coool haha!

It was so weird but nice to walk around like a student, while my mother was a student there almost 30 years ago. Walking through the same streets, going to the same university. Following my mothers footsteps for one day.

Can't wait to go to college for real. Only one year of high school to go until life will start for real. Having my own 'house', making my own rules, going to college, meeting awesome new people and of course the student scene, which we discovered a little last days. 
Hip hip hooray to my cousin for letting us stay and Leiden, we'll be back soon! 

Lots of love,
