One of the most interesting nights in the september/october period in Tilburg is the night of the university. The campus of Tilburg University is open for the entire night and all sorts of things happen. My personal favorite event is the bonfire open mic, an annual occurring event. Poets, musicians and story tellers gather around a massive bonfire and tell stories, make music and tell poetry to the public. During last years edition I had improvised my pieces, but for tonight’s edition we had been asked with the poetry circle.
After a summer full of adventures, it’s always nice to see your friends from the previous year back. One girl of my group currently studies in Eindhoven, something technical, and one guy has been performing all summer long on the biggest stages of the country. It’s always good to see your friends again, and you know what goes above everything?
