I’m back in the Netherlands! Traveling taught me a lot and nourished the soul.

It’s quite possible I’ll be traveling again somewhere in the not-too-distant future, so please do keep this blog in your RSS-reader.

All aboard for a week of summercamp fun in Bladel

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

Back in the Netherlands for a good reason: a summercamp with 42 kids, 15 superb staff and Clemens as my cooking-buddy. No idea was too crazy. “Our” kids aged 13-14 years were adorable. For a week my world did not extend beyond Bladel.

Triviant-disco
We like to dress up for the occasion.

"Fort Bejaard"
… and it’s all very serious.

Ontgroening - Fear Factor
Kids discovering they’re going to eat… fried insects :) !

Creme brulee
Cle and I were proud of our creme brulee – in 60-fold.

Turnaroundbitches
The so-called turnaroundbitches (wentelteefjes).

Oh yeah!
Kids know best!?

Hulp bij koken!
Kids helping with cooking. Lovely!

Na dagtocht
You can calm the kids down… but you have to make them walk for a looong time!

Fun w/ kids

S&S
Sport&Spel kicked ass.

Touch base and bring the weather with you

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

My days in the Netherlands: enjoying ridiculously nice weather (on par with Morocco) out on the terraces with my friends. Excellent to be with them again – and a temporary somewhat hedonistic lifestyle has never hurt anyone, did it? Cafe Olivier is quite an addition to Leiden nightlife!

Photos from a “preparatory” weekend with the staff of my LCKV summer camp:

Golden shoes

Saturday, March 1st, 2008

Still a 100 things to do, yet I’m leaving in 33 hours… Fortunately, I’ve got my golden shoes packed, so what could possibly go wrong?

This blog is for your (and my) enjoyment. I’ll minimize text and post mostly pictures. Be sure to check out the “Quo Vadis”-button for my location… :D

Love, Rogier
