in order of sherri (thx for mail!) I have to tell something about myself.

21 years old (seems te be one of the youngest of GOL?) student out of Belgium. I study Social Policy in Leuven (famous university town). For my internship, I had the possibility to go abroad. I choose for switserland. My goals are learning french, and with this forum, I can assure you that my english also will be better!

I don't know what I have to do in GVA. Some say I can stay at an international studenthome (someone knows that?), my internship will be at a syndicat (maybe I can propose the GVA Social Syndicate??:))

For the rest: ask me if you want to know me. I certainly will answer! Thx for organising such a great onlinecommunity.

Greetz,
Brecht

Hi Brecht,

Welcome to GVA. If you like hiking and meeting people, it's worth a try with AGAS (Association Genevoise des Amis du Sal?ve): http://www.rando-saleve.net/
See you.

Hi Brecht ;)
Welcome to the site and soon to Geneva...
I LOVE the city where you are studying! I've been there a couple of times (or a bit more then that) to visit some friends that are/were studying there and enjoyed everyminute of it!!

Looking forward to see you around!

Cheers,
Vale

Where did you stay in Leuven?
Brecht, Jan 5, 2006 @ 21:13

Personally, I prefer JUPILER ;-) but it's a question of geography, I was living near Li?ge!

i used to live in Limburg (province) and I grow up with jupiler. But here in Leuven, we have no choice. The beer I like the most is a brown Leffe or Westmalle. But I think they don't know the beer in GVA?
Brecht, Jan 6, 2006 @ 13:00

Yes they do. Calvinus is quite good. You'll find brown Leffe here and... I go back frequently to Belgium and bring back beers but chuuut ;-)
Ben
BenZen, Jan 6, 2006 @ 13:15

Geneva people do know about brown leffe... a bit less about my favourite... Hoogarden or however it's spelled :) (THE white one)

See you around or at some... BEER EVENT :)

Cheers,
Vale

Hoegaarden (it's a town in Belgium). I have some in my fridge ;-)
The white one, the "Grand Cru" and the "Fruit d?fendu"... Real fans are welcome for a tasting ;-)
