Flower market + farm animal invasion
Every spring, Groningen becomes the host of an enormous flower market for a day. The flower vendors take over a large part of the city centre and thousands of tourists from other towns and neighbouring Germany make their way. Be it for buying some flowers or just for a walk, it is fun to see the market.
One thing I surely did not understand was why on my way home I became a witness of Groningen being invaded by farm animals. Not really something you see every day!

International Day at the Faculty
If you missed the International Day this year, don’t worry: we were there 
The delicious food from all over the world may be gone but we took some pictures and videos to keep the memory alive.
The international day is organised annually by the EBF and it is a great way to get to know a bit more about the cultures of the international students at the faculty. Many students are excited about letting their colleagues and teachers try their favourite dishes from back home and this all results in a great variety of foods and drinks from every corner of the world. See for yourselves!
Experience Indonesia
An event to remember was the Indonesian dinner organized by the Indonesian community in Groningen. It was a unique opportunity to experience the Indonesian culture accompanied with food fit for a king.
The presence of the Indonesian ambassador for The Netherlands, Her Excellency Ms. Retno Marsudi, made the evening even more special. She opened the programme with a speech about the beauty of Indonesia and the great economical and social improvement achieved over the years.
The programme content many presentations to enrich everyone`s knowledge of the Indonesian culture, traditional songs and impressive dances from different regions of the country. For the ones that value delicious food, there were ten different dishes to put your stomach into bliss, though the spicy Sambal was only for the ones not afraid to play with fire. Many Indonesian FEB students took part as well proving that they are not just brilliant when it comes to economics and business but also very artistic.
The audience didn’t have even a minute to get bored competing in a quiz about their knowledge of Indonesia and win wonderful prizes and everybody was invited to join in the dance Sajojo for a perfect end of a memorable night.
