I was once in Brussels a few years back, worst place I've ever been to, everything was dirty, people shouting on the street and fighting. My bf went to the McDonald's for a little while, I was waiting outside and it only took a few minutes and some sleezy guy started to come up to me, just sort of creepily looking me so I went in to the McDonald's and he followed after luckily my bf came, and the creep went away...I only have bad memories from Belgium
Hrm, creeps can be anywhere, I think we've all seen people like the guy you describe. I remember walking through the red light district with a bunch of other people, and a man starts talking to one of the girls and asks if she is "looking for work".
Brussels may not be a very good example of Belgians, 70% of the population is of foreign origin. And they speak French there, so I fart in their general direction. Better visit Flanders. Oh wait, don't visit Belgium at all, come to glorious Netherlands instead.

I try to just always look at the ground.
Why not looking at their faces, you don't have to look at the ground, just don't stare, nobody likes that?
I can look at people of both gender and think that they look nice, but it is nothing sexual, I think appreciating beauty does not equal sexual lust.
women don't' want worthless guys looking or possible flirting with them. I try not to go out much so as to not burden them or cause myself to get more depressed.
at most I have glanced at womens bodies some times. when they really cute I try to sneak looks at their faces
hope they don't' notice.

True enough about creeps everywhere, but I do believe there were more in Brussels...
haha
I think maybe next year we will visit Netherlands, my bf misses the food, specially the chinese restaurants and babi pangang
Here Chinese food is different, they put shrimps on everything and no sate sauce...

The Chinese restaurants in the Netherlands are usually Chinese-Indonesian, so they are somewhat different. And in Chinese restaurants outside the Netherlands they wouldn't know the name babi panggang since that is of Indonesian/Malay origin.
It's not that hard to make peanut sauce yourself, with water and peanutbutter and/or soy sauce or onions etc. And it goes with anything: barbeques, meatballs, haricots verts, rice, fries,
Babi panggang met nasi!
Sate! Met SAUSSSSS.

My favorite was the tjap tjoy met kipfilet.
I never made peanut sauce myself, maybe I'll try once. usually we order some food online from Nederland, like
Unox erwten soup, Calvé pindakaas and rookworst
Do you eat a lot of chinese food, or cook it?
I take it you prefer nasi over bami?

They don't have pindakaas in Sweden?
I don't eat Chinese food that often, I don't have a microwave right now and they always give such huge amounts at the Chinese restaurants I can eat three times from it. I don't have a clear preference for nasi or bami, it's just that the picture had nasi. I sometimes make nasi or bami myself with peanut sauce, it's a pretty easy and cheap meal. You can make the peanut sauce by putting a bit of water and a chunk of peanutbutter in a pan, and it will melt and slowly boil for a short while, which will make it thicker. Then you can add things like soy sauce, sambal, garlic etc. Some versions also have onions or other things in them, there are lots of recipes on the internets. This one for example is more fancy, there are many varieties (and this article has the same pic of sate I posted earlier):

And this one is quite different (and notice how he says you can use cheap peanutbutter for it ): http://www.kruidenthuis.nl/recepten/191/Sat%C3%A9saus/

Yes we have pindakaas but only Skippy...I like Calvé better
...bijna niet kan mislukken haha sounds good (your second link)
Goedkope ...makes me think of Euroshopper, funny thing is that a store in sweden called ICA used to sell Euroshopper products, but Swedish people are very nationalistic for some reason and only want Swedish products, so they changed the name to ICA basic...

They changed it in the Netherlands as well. Euroshopper now called AH Basic. Maybe it's easier to make it look more like a personal brand, AH Basic and Ica Basic etc.
I think Albert Heijn is an annoying store btw, always their stupid bonus card, asking if I want some of the stupid crap they hand out for free, or if I want to buy spaarzegels...

There is sugar in quite a bit, all the sweet&sour sauces. And I'm not sure whether I would eat dogs, I never liked them. I think pigs and goats have a better cuteness factor.
