Dorien, 22 years old, Belgian with a significant piece of her heart somewhere in downtown Vancouver. Master in Linguistics and Literature, longterm master-to-be in Cultural Studies. Current occupation: trying to be a semi-adult. I believe kindness is key to everything. You have me at coffee, wine, vanilla or macaron. I like to document my life, in words and images. Upcoming irrational adventures: finding an internship in France / backpacking through South-western Asia.Tumblr (3.0; @lapoetesse)http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/c5decb05a77e854453eb5e8c7e16a514/tumblr_mn9u5gAWlZ1qm9qn0o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Hihihi girlsnight!</p>http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51175968564http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51175968564Thu, 23 May 2013 23:53:40 +0200personali love you bitches<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/d417f4e592146176e89032900d4600f1/tumblr_mn715vrY2d1qm9qn0o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><span>2008, last year of high school, Verona, Italy. <br/></span><br/>I just found this photo back and it made me laugh. It’s an incredibly cute picture and at the same time it’s incredibly… awkward (look at the girl in the background). I realized this picture is the perfect representation of what high school was to me. Even though we had the wrong haircuts, the terrible Eastpack backpacks and awkward faces, at that point in our lives, we felt like we had it all. </p>http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51059946146http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51059946146Wed, 22 May 2013 11:32:19 +0200high schoolpersonal<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/cd4f0fa0b74dc8e433f43197fd185429/tumblr_mn1hsx9z9b1qjvnc4o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://travelingcolors.tumblr.com/post/51015478065/early-morning-in-san-francisco-california-by">travelingcolors</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/whitneybee/4025303274/"><strong>Early morning in San Francisco | California</strong> (by whitneybee</a>)</p> </blockquote>http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51059462650http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51059462650Wed, 22 May 2013 11:13:26 +0200san franciscoi love this city<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/6dac59fbfc1cb88168940018b5093d99/tumblr_miwnm0h6A01qz4d4bo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51057679515http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51057679515Wed, 22 May 2013 10:05:19 +0200<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/3248586131c8c0ede5280eb3e5344057/tumblr_mmbybbMe7c1qjvnc4o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://travelingcolors.tumblr.com/post/51052472329/montmartre-paris-france-by-johnny-santo">travelingcolors</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/one234five/8447430775/"><strong>Montmartre, Paris | France</strong> (by Johnny Santo Domingo</a>)</p> </blockquote>http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51057604659http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51057604659Wed, 22 May 2013 10:02:35 +0200<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/3a3e1b415a599066f3b5f53fc8b2f405/tumblr_mhd2zxZQur1qkpuk4o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://infinitive-space.tumblr.com/post/41818925491/assinaboine-by-rbnstubbs">infinitive-space</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/rbnstubbs/3751081962/" title="Assinaboine">Assinaboine</a><span> by </span><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/rbnstubbs/">rbnstubbs</a><span> </span></p> </blockquote> <p>and of course, this is a Canadian.</p>http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51021174911http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51021174911Wed, 22 May 2013 00:34:30 +0200canadai love canadaoutdoorsy canadians let me love you““Maybe…you’ll fall in love with me all over again.”<br/> “Hell,” I said, “I love you enough now.

I can move in on the 30th of june. Such an adult decision to spend a lot of money to have a place for my own .<br/><br/>My life is changing so much. I left Vancouver one week ago, I start my first real job in less than a week.  To be honest all these quick changes really, really scares me. <br/><br/>I guess I&#8217;ll be fine in the end, but I really hope my first Summer as &#8220;an adult&#8221; in Leuven won&#8217;t be a Summer of loneliness and regrets. </p>http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51008275727http://lapoetesse.tumblr.com/post/51008275727Tue, 21 May 2013 21:46:36 +0200personalranti don't know how to do an adult life<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/ee7068908fa6fb4087cb8cf4e5daa012/tumblr_mn3vebArjV1qm9qn0o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Sorry for the spam.
