English is not my native language. It’s not even Belgium’s second or third language. I constantly try to improve my English, but this story proves that no matter how many books you read, audiobooks you listen to, or movies you watch, sometimes you mess up.
Boared to death: a guide to sneaking – Part 1
Mature wild boars are dangerous animals. If you happen to come eye to eye with one and they feel threatened, you are basically screwed, or better yet, skewered. They will outrun you, have sharper pointy ends than most of us humans and can even uproot trees in case you decide to climb one to get away – the tree, not the boar. In short, you don’t want to meet one of them in person. This is a story about poor planning, lime-flavoured poison, a retired Nascar driver, benches full of stupid and noisy, unprocessed bacon.

Stø and the absent whales – Part 1
The greatest trip I have made in my life so far is a month long road trip through Norway with my best friend and our girlfriends. Norway has a landscape straight out of a fairytale, with sparkling blue fjords surrounded by towering mountains, waterfalls and glaciers. Next to the wonderful nature, Norway’s coast is also lined with lovely, interesting little fishing villages. Unfortunately, Stø is not one of them.
This is a two part story about unnecessary sandwiches, wobbly boats, absent whales, a picture massacre and most importantly, this is a story about Stø.

The moose, monkey of the North
Norway is a beautiful Scandinavian country, with a fairytale landscape that is littered with waterfalls, fjords, glaciers, lovely fishing villages and mountain ranges. But this is not a story about Norway. This is a story about one of the many roads into Norway; a road with the weirdest looking monkeys, a buzzing lake, watery eyes and trees; lots and lots of trees.
