KoningsDag aka King`s Day.
Since my internship started in the beginning of the April, I was able to celebrate King`s Day for the first time ever !
As it in its` name, Kings day is to celebrate the king of the Netherlands, King Willem- Alexander on 27th of April. It is a national holiday and every corner of the Netherlands turns to orange colour to celebrate van Oranje family, the royal family… Of course I had to fit in with my orange colour accessories. :)
There are music festivals throughout the whole country in this day. I attended to Kingsland Festival in Groningen, festival built in a big park and a great excuse to meet up with friends.
I met up with 2 other Dutch friends there and enjoyed the festival together. They were having a semester abroad via Erasmus in my home university FH Wels last semester (winter semester 2016), and quickly became my best friends -and one of them became my boyfriend, but that`s another story :) -
They both study in Hanze University of Applied Sciences, Groningen as a Mechanical engineering students.
We keep seeing each other as a group almost every 2-3 week almost !
I came up with a slogan for you Erasmus, here it goes: " ERASMUS... CONNECTING PEOPLE..." hehe I may have inspired by Nokia, but still I think it fits :)
