Welcome to my country :)
by Darkelve on Saturday 29/Sep/2007, @15:48

Great, maybe I'll visit if that's allowed (I'm not a coder) :)

Some tips:

- Belgian beer is not overpriced. And you are in luck, Leuven is a student hangout and there are lots of places where beer (even specialty beer like Trappist) is pretty cheap; at least it was last time I was there. Typical student city so always something to do (besided hacking :p)

- Do not accidentally take the train to Louvain-La-Neuve... happens to the best *cough*

- True, the girls are delicious, but they're all MINE... eh, nevermind that :s

- Since it's university, you should have a pretty fast network connection. ;)

- Don't forget to bring/buy an umbrella (yes, even though it is summer... sometimes we get unlucky)

And have fun.

Everyone is invited, especially non-programmers, we have enough of those hanging around already..... Just kidding, there are never enough developers.

Like I said in my blog post: every user or just interested observer is invited, even during the coding marathon there are interesting things to do for non coders, like BoF sessions. (http://commonideas.blogspot.com/2007/09/akademy-in-belgium.html)

And a small correction: aKademy will take place in Sint-Katelijne-Waver, near Mechelen, where girls are pretty and the beer is affordable :) Not Leuven.

Thanks for the tips on Leuven as student city and the trains to Louvain-La-Neuve, but...

The Akademy is not taking place in Leuven at all, it's taking place in Sint-Katelijne-Waver (near Mechelen), in the De Nayer Institute. That's clearly stated in the second paragraph. So we better all take a train to Mechelen.

I do understand the confusion though, as the first paragraph refers to this institute as "an associated campus of the University of Leuven".
