(the average age of the students was 18 at that time)
i would start threads in flemish but barely anyone here speaks it i'm afraid :P

yeh exactly. If you have the opportunity to use your language/improve it, learning is so much easier. A positive of living in Europe, I think. A negative of living on an isolated island
Is flemish an area-diaelct of dutch? The dutchies were the second biggest alt to english language at the placebo/slash/teenglamgoth forums I used to frequent. The threads were always EPIC.(and mostly about black nail varnish and homoerotic picture posts)
