My uncle checked my car and he said that the insurance will not reimburse 1500 Euros (estimation of the repair). Everyone had their little comment, so I wanted to check.
Here is the law regarding the insurance: LINK
If the car is still working but the repair is not “economically viable”: meaning the repair cost is at least 80% of the value of the car:
1. The insurance will make a proposition and give you the amount of money corresponding to the value of your car + 10% or 20% etc … You can argue, have your own expert and try to increase the amount of money in the transaction. In the end, if everyone agrees, you take the money and give your car to the insurance.
2. If you do not agree, you can take the money proposed by the insurance (80% of its market value) and repair your car yourself. After repair, you need a technical check of your car to be able to drive in it again.
In my case, the value of my car is 4700 Euros (I checked it online) and the repair cost is only 1500 Euros. So if the insurance accepts to repair my car, there is no real problem. I would be more than happy if the insurance gives me 4700 Euros in cash to buy another car :).

Besides visiting my cousins, uncle and aunt in Belgium, the second important reason of my visit was good food. It was delicious!

I am new to selfies. They are very nice because they are snapshots of quick events that I could not catch with my semi-professional camera. These quick snapshots of time are precious to me!

I’ll go to Belgium next Friday and we’re planning to go to Thollen’s beach (The Netherlands) on Saturday to catch some crabs.
1. I prepared my tools: a nest, a tea filter (metal) and some kind of a “rope”. The tea filter will be used to hold and to protect my bait (raw meat) and it will also add extra weight to the nest around which the crabs will be trapped.
2. I watched a video on Youtube

I was shop seeing at my usual mall when, suddenly, I heard screams and I saw a man insulting and running after a black dude! Then the black guy speed up and dropped all his bags, he was desperately trying to escape but he was caught by the security guards. He was stealing and running away.
The scene was so unreal and, because of the terrorist events, everyone expected something weird to happen!

Until these dates just Wait …. Wait … Wait.
What if I get a decent amount of money? What will I do first? Maybe a cruise because it has been on my TO-DO list to try that. However, I would prefer to have a boat with internet!

I enjoyed this book, Battlemage.
I did not enjoy “Miss Peregrine’s home for peculiar children” but I could not stop reading the book.
and I stopped reading over and over my old collection of books (Isaak Asimov and David Eddings’ books).

This is what I thought for quite some times now. The endurance sports are the most effective weapons against time. They are quite painful but they are really good for the whole body! It is not only that, I do feel really good after a long 8 miles run (10 km). The feeling is so intense that once you do experience this feeling: the pain and the intense good feeling at the end, you will never stop. It is like a drug and you just keep running!
