Heres some fast facts to get you up to speed with what “Carnaval” is in the Netherlands. A Huge massive party in the whole of the riegions south of the rivers, People dress up crazy, act even crazier and listen to super crazier spastic hyper carnival/circus like music. Drinking and mass craziness continues for four whole days including street parades in every town, the “Polonasia” (congo line). Some song titles, litterally translated for you include : – Pancake in my undies – Everything has an end and a sausage has two – Theres a horse in the hall – A little bus full of pola (polish people) – Beer and titties – Two people have to go to the toilet and theres only room for one. Some of the outfits i saw included, a brocoli, a toaster, a “Talking poll” (highway phone booth), playing cards, mimes., elephants, thuderbirds.. the list goes on….

EDIT-

Pieter and i are off to Spain tomorrow for a 7-10 day venture including Portugal too. After that the serious work hunt begins and assessing of my options

hope your all safe and well
