International meet the Dutch

I went to see the Netherlands play in the world cup in our flatbar with Andi. We dressed up as orange as we could to support the country that temporarily adopted us and ended up being not only the only two international students there, but also the two biggest fans! Watching games at the flatbar is fun because there is a beautiful HDTV there and, of course, free beer (for the first half hour of the game). In the pic is Jan-Fré, the bar manager and some nights, my best friend.

When we were there, we got interviewed for the De Universiteitskrant (the UK) by the editor of the international page, who found me through my weblog! He ended up writing a really funny article about how the international kids don't really get too much into the Dutch football spirit (with the exception of us, of course!). Well, I say the Dutch had less spirit - there were only about 7 other guys in the bar that night.
