Today, we had our day off. In the morning, though, we talked with a woman named Kristijn from Belgium, and asked her a lot of questions about life in Belgium, Ghent, and Europe. It was really interesting getting to learn about how things are different here, such as how parents recurve money from the government if they have children. 
Afterwards, we went on a small your of Ghent, and got to see some of the best shops in the city. For lunch, we ate at a restaurant called Max, which is the best and oldest waffle shop in Belgium. I got a waffle with chocolate sauce and whipped cream, as well as a hot chocolate. It was probably the best waffle I’ve eaten.
Then, we were free to go shopping throughout the city. I bought a nice jacket from a shop called Yak & Yeti, where all the items are made organically in Nepal. All the proceeds from the shop go to help the health of the people who made it in Nepal. The man selling was very humble and appreciative, and seemed very genuine.
