EEET2012 - Day 1

We're typing you this message from the River Side (motherfucker) youth hostel in Gdansk, chilling on the couch and listening to Moby's live concert in the Brabanthal(!) in Leuven some years ago.

After picking up Liesbeth and Toon at the railway station in Mechelen, my dearest dad drove us to Eindhoven where we took a Ryanair flight to Gdansk.
After taking the wrong bus (would've been to easy to take the right one straight away right?) we finally ended up in Gdansk, a nice city indeed.
We started looking for a hostel straight away and found this River Side hostel on a tourist guide we got at the airport. Afterwards we headed for the city centre. Gdansk is really a beautiful city and worth visiting, even if it's only for an afternoon or so. The old port is truly remarkable and the nice, colourful and tight houses sometimes remind me of Amsterdam or Switserland...

For dinner we had a pizza and a beer, Liesbeth took chicken nuggets and fries with a coke. All this costed us a small 20euros. You can see what we mean with: we like Poland already.

Tomorrow we're leaving for Sopot, about 15km from here, where we'll meet my Erasmus friend Pawel. He will bring us to the Heineken Open'er Festival which starts tomorrow night. More about that in a next post, which might take a bit longer than 48hours to be posted as I don't know if we'll have internet available...

peace out_

Toon,Liesbeth&Thibault
