I have neglected my little space in the world. But I will write in more detail when I have a bit more time. Last month my brother and I got to spend two amazing weeks in Japan. Admittedly, it was the most memorable trip I have ever made; it was comparatively better than other overseas travels I have done thus far. We visited many places, namely Osaka, Kyoto, and Tokyo. We also made little side trips to Hakone, Fuji-san, and Kobe. There are so many things I wanted to do that we didn’t have time to go and do. Kyoto was so impressive with so many temples and shrines. I could not keep up with all the names of the ones we visited.

I am finally going back to Belgium for a little bit. Yaaaayyyyy!!! 
:D I leave in March and will spend about 15 days there. I haven’t seen my old cronies since the holiday season of 1999-2000. I went to art school with most of them when I lived there. Now it will be interesting to see where they all are in their lives. Also, I will get to use my Belgian passport for the first time in Belgium.
I am back from my month long holiday in Colombia…
I’ve been here since yesterday morning and Santiago is a very pleasant city. Chileans are very warm and welcoming and extremely relaxed.
So, I didn’t get to leave as planned yesterday… Many flights were cancelled because of poor visibility due to the snow, mine included.
I am trying to get my Jazzanova collection together to listen to selected tracks to put on my mp3 player for the long trip to Chilé tomorrow (I mean today). Look at the time already… it really does fly.
I talked to two of my very good friends in Belgium last night on the phone for a long time. It was so nice to catch up with A. since she moved to Brussels (and doesn’t have a phone), and her boyfriend M. (who has a phone) and was accepted to attend the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam for two years. M. is a burgeoning contemporary Belgian artist who does very interesting pieces. I am so happy for him because the Rijksakademie is a very hard school to get into. I have another friend who is writing a book, and one of the main characters in his story is inspired by M. That’s brilliant.
