Today was our last day in Antwerp. Well, Antwerpen in Dutch. I learned that in one half Belgium they speak Dutch but actually it's Flemish (or Vlaams in well, Flemish). In the other half they speak French. But we wouldn't go to the French-speaking part. And that's called (in Flemish) Wallonië. I have to say, Dutch is a difficult but funny language. I know a few words and sentences like 'Hoe gaat het?' But I don't really know how to pronounce it. It's not that difficult to write it (even though it has a lot of rules and stuff) but it's really hard to pronounce it.

However, this afternoon we would go to Hasselt, which is also in Flanders. But Hasselt is the main city of Limburg. Limburg is like we have California. We're still going to some other cities too. Mostly we only stay 2-3-4 days. But there's one city we stay 1 week.

(Sidenote: I still don't know in what order I'm gonna do the cities but you can see the city + how many days in the top media. It will become clear why they stay in Roeselare for a week. And in the most cities they won't be bothered by fans because here they're not that known. Almost no one knows them. Well, besides me of course 😂)

We walked around Antwerp in the morning, then packed and then went to Hasselt. I'm so happy we chose to go to Belgium. It's such a nice country and since we're not that known here, we don't get recognized. We still do wear sunglasses and a hat or something. But I think that I'm not gonna do that when we get to the city after Hasselt because the one after Hasselt is not that big. I mean, it's a big city but not like Antwerp or Brussels or Hasselt or something. I don't remember the name of the city though because it's a difficult one.

Hasselt seemed like a nice city. What I did notice is that the people here speak a lot slower. Like everyone. It's just weird. And the accents are so different. Like in Antwerp (Antwerp is a city AND a province) they speak well in their accent and from the moment you're in Limburg, they speak their accent. And they're both completely different. There's not really a thing that's the same. Well, there might be a few things. Not that I really understand anything of what they were saying. Luckily, I could speak English.

When we were all set in the hotel, we walked around the city for a bit. Well, only the street where the hotel was in. But I really enjoyed it. We walked hand in hand and Jen's head was on my shoulder. Luckily, no one recognized us and I was actually happy about it. I mean, I love my fans. And I like when people recognize me, but sometimes it's really annoying you can't go anywhere without being recognized.

I actually really like Belgium. How I never thought about going here before. Everyone is always like "The Netherlands this, France that, Great-Britain, Germany." But they forget the land in between. Belgium. And to be honest, Belgium has the best fries in the world whatever the people of the Netherlands say (*cough* _Captainswaner_ *cough*)
And they also have the best chocolate and of course beer in the world. In one of the cities, Roeselare I think, we're gonna visit the 'Rodenbach'-brewery. I'm actually kinda excited for that. And I can tell Jen is too.

It's 11 pm and we're laying on our bed.

"Colin?"

"Mm?"

"When we get back to Vancouver to shoot season 7 and stuff, in who's apartment are we gonna live? Because I think it's useless to keep both."

"Probably true. Well, it doenst really matter to me. You can choose."

"Well,  I maybe kinda want to keep my apartment. I have so many good memories there and yeah. You know?"

"I know what you mean. We'll live in your apartment and I'll put mine to rent. That way we have some extra money. Not that we really need it, though."

She chuckled.

"True. I'm tired."

"Then sleep, my dear, sweet, loving wife. We can talk about this later."

"Why do you understand me so much?"

"Because I'm your husband. And we've been best friends for so long. I would kill myself for not understanding you."

She laughed.

"Okay. Goodnight, babe."

"Goodnight, darling," I say and kiss the top of her head after she lies down.

I am so gonna enjoy this. First give you guys some fluffy(/smutty) chapters and then let their world crash down 😈😈😈😈

I'm gonna put a map of Flanders in the next chapter where you can see where they're going and where everything is ☺

I am thinking about ending this book soon and then doing a sequel. Or do you want me to just continue ?? Comment below please

Love you all my lovely readers
