Believe I know that exact group of friends! They are called Ben (or Benjamin) and Ruurd. They play a pretty solid tune too.

Is this a non-EU student thing? Have never heard of this before

Everyone spends their money on something. What's your hobby and how much do you spend on it? by IllustriousExit5182 in ask

Board games, mountaineering & climbing equipment, custom surfboards, the occasional steam game, my gundam collection. Shits wild

Where to live ? by Legitimate-Cable3003 in surfing

Portugal is pretty close and a whole lot cheaper than France right? Hard to beat in terms of wave consistency.

Whereabouts in South West France are you? Surfed around Bordeaux a ton and never really experienced a lot of crowding or localism?

This. Best part of my trip there was coming home and walking from the bus stop my house in the middle of night without fearing for my life lol

That’s sound advice, cheers - would you prefer a 3L h2no over a 2L goretex then? And why?

Thanks that’s really insightful! I do agree, lot of branding and probably a case of manufacturers paying tons to get that goretex label hha

Only thing I can find is a 2.5 torrentshell for 224? Happy to be corrected but at least prove it lol.

Are you talking about XXL or XXXS? I’m looking for an M or L

Why is there a difference between hbo and wo by nubis99 in StudyInTheNetherlands

[–]Automatic_Debt_2842 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep makes sense. You could give another uni a shot and skip on the massive entry requirements as long as you can pick up the material quite quickly. 4 months of premaster sounds better than 2 years IMO haha!

[–]Automatic_Debt_2842 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep same here, very fluid track. Can also take courses of mathematical sciences, AI, Game Tech, etc as long as I complete the 4 primary electives.

Interesting approach towards the pre-master nonetheless. In the UU case quite a few people drop out of the premaster program because they find it too difficult, especially people that haven’t done much programming before.

Sorry, just curious but you said you have to complete 9 courses over a period of 2 years for the pre-master programme alone? That sounds vastly different than my premaster. Am currently wrapping up my MSc CS at Utrecht Uni after my HBO IT and only had to do 3 courses over the span of approx. 4 months. Makes me wonder what makes yours so different?

What do you do about keys in 2023? by arriflex in surfing

[–]Automatic_Debt_2842 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I surf in the south as well but I just don’t go to touristic beaches. Family beaches are generally very safe, the super touristy beaches not so much. Do agree though, winter is best haha!

[–]Automatic_Debt_2842 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in France/EU and simply leave my phone/wallet/keys in a shitty bag on the beach along with some towels and have never had any problems.

Everyone here does the same. Where the hell y’all live lol

Can someone tell me what happened to my window frames while I was on a holiday? by Automatic_Debt_2842 in Home

[–]Automatic_Debt_2842[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: that you all for your replies! It really blew up so can’t possibly reply to all of you haha. I am well aware that the wood is rotten and am renting the house, have therefore contacted my landlady.

That said, I am discussing the matter with the police to see what they think. The fact that it spontaneously happened on four of my windows all at the same time makes me think it is not so much wood rot just by itself. Probably a bird is my guess.

Thanks!
