I went a night out with Vladimir Karetnikov, an affiliate from Adsimilis.
First I went to his apartment in Marina Del Rey, a beautiful place in Los Angeles.
We started of with some beers, but then I told him what I usually drank during my student years.
A great starter/aperitif, before you go to the clubs or bars.
Vodka – Champagne/Prosecco/Cava, in my opinion a great combination.
He gave it a try, and he liked it :).

After some drinks, Vlad showed me his view.
Damn if that was my view, I would constantly sit outside!!

Then we went to a bar in Venice to have supper and some beers.

I think we were a little too early at the bar.
But we had a good time so we didn’t mind.
Yesterday I had a great time getting to know the neighbors.
They gave me tips on where to go, what to do and so on.
They even gave me some fun facts about the internet.
That it was invented in California, the story behind it and that the first message over the internet was “login”.
In the meanwhile, I introduced them to some Belgium beers:
– Tripel Karmeliet
– Duvel
– Delirium
– Stella Artois
Here’s a picture with Craig.
Getting to know CraigGetting to know the neighbors
The first thing I had to do, was getting my rental car at Sixt.
I was really happy, I had choosen Sixt!!
Because I saw some waiting lines at other car rental companies,
where you needed to wait longer than four hours.
So I was really really happy, that I only had to wait as long as the time to make this picture.

As result I got my Chevrolet Cruze, with (T)hug license plates.

Then I drove to my apartment and settled in.
The apartment is exactly as advertised on the internet, what a godsend !!
The living room with the kitchen, provided with all the “necessary”.

Once settled in, I went out to get a new number and find a supermarket.
My new number is 0014242909884, but you can still Whatsapp or imessage me, on my Belgium number ;).
I found a supermarket, but i think have to search a new one, because this one had a little to much caution tape in my opinion. The supermarket was as big as a concert hall and half of it was taped like this :p.
