On Friday 26th there was a costume party at school and I really enjoyed it! It was a bit complicated to get a costume here, maybe it would have been better to be aware of this party before coming here... But I finally managed to find some accessories and and disguised as an Hawaiian.





At 8 p.m. we began the party at Ania/Marta/Joanna/ Katka/Ondrej/Esther/Zeliha's place and then we went to the party together. We danced a lot, it was really fun to see the other people's costumes: Bob the Sponge, devils, angel, superhero, Lady Gaga, Amy Winehouse, a Chinese, a nurse, etc.




After the party, we went to the Friday Café: the café of the students at the university. Actually, it's now nearly an habit to meet the Erasmus students and other Danish people at this place: there we can drink Black Birds (A Danish beer from the brewery Fugelsang... The bird who sings in English), play table football, talk together... Have a
good time together in a word :D



Some music of the Friday Café:
- Kings of Leon, Use somebody
- Cityowl, flierflies
- etc
When I will back in Belgium, I will certainly listen to this songs again just to remember good memories :)


But we don't go to the Friday Café only on Friday... also on Wednesday for special activities.
Actually, international evening are organized where we can talk about our countries. Last weekend, Hungary and Belgium was in favour. It was an opportunity to learn more about different foreign
places, taste some typical food or why not, learn a new dance :)



We made a quiz about culture and then, other Erasmus students could taste Belgian beers Jupiller and some chocolate Côte D'Or :D
Congratulation to the Polish girls who won the game!



After that, Viki presented a Powerpoint about Hungary. There were plenty of pictures and she explained the buildings in a few words.
I have never been in Hungary but through her explanations, I found it really interesting and I just wanted to be there!
Then, she taught us a traditional Hungarian dance, we joined her and tried to do it all together.It was so fun !

All these moments are really great: learning and living together while having fun at the same time... it's THE sentence and the main idea of this Erasmus!
