- Introduction:
- "Hallo - I am Gui, born in Belgium, now living in Huntington Beach. I love the Dutch language, and I speak it with a dialect from my hometown - Antwerpen. My vocabulary needs stimulation as does my grammar. I look forward to meeting new friends."
- Heineken or Grolsch?
- "Heineken - love that special aftertaste - - - although on my last visit to Prague, I discovered that the draft Pilsner Urquell is likely my all time favorite. Belgium makes some powerful brews as well."
- What's your favorite dutch word? Are you fluent in Dutch?
- "No idea how to spell my favorite words . . . "
- What type of gatherings, activities or events do you hope to participate in?
- "Any where I can enjoy my mother-tongue."
- What dutch food do you miss most?
- "I love foods. Thinking of a huge pot of mussels steamed in white wine sauce with Flemish style fries with home made mayonnaise will make my taste buds go into reverie."
- Where in the Netherlands were you born or lived?
- "Born in Antwerpen, was kidnapped and taken to America when I was only 5. It wasn't as bad as it could have been since my kidnappers were family."
