Antwerpen times: Day 1

"that is a good time"

On Saturday, me and five other AS textiles gals and our two textile teachers went off to Antwerp - or Antwerpen as the locals says - to gain inspiration for our A2 themes. Although it rained for 2/3 days we were there, we all had such a laugh. Antwerp is an amazing city filled with the most extravagant buildings and many beautiful people. The only way to travel in Antwerp is by bike or tram and there are religious statues on the corner of every other building you walk past! 

I tried to figure out the best way of displaying my time in Antwerp but got confused so, oh well, you get what you're given...

Summary of Antwerp day 1

BIKES!

 Obvs their version of Boris Bikes

So as you can see I wasn't joking about all the bikes around, but the best thing is most of them are decorated with fake flowers and brightly coloured materials which was the cutest thing!!
Plus! There is so much graffiti there and most of it is actually really nice and all of the boutique windows are layed out in a v.aesthetically pleasing way.

Random encounters from the first day...

During the creation of this post I have eaten a whole box of chocolate fingers.
