What adventures await festival-goers leaving Hasselt?
A girl from Bruges thinks about her recent experience and notices that her hoarse voice shows how much fun she had. She said that the event was so enjoyable that she and her friends now have a long 2.5-hour train ride back home. They have to carry a lot of camping gear like a tent, camping chairs, mats and pillows which shows they were ready for their outdoor adventure. Before leaving they decided to leave any leftover food and drinks behind. They wanted to donate these items to a food bank to help those in need. This shows their thoughtfulness and commitment to making sure nothing goes to waste and that others can benefit from their leftovers.
A group of tired festival-goers is leaving the campsite with one girl expressing that she had a great time but just wants to sleep in a bed and take a shower, feeling lucky to have a day off to rest. A boy who looks a bit sick mentions he has a hangover from drinking a whole bottle of vodka, which led him to the emergency room but he’s feeling better now and needs to go home since he’s heading to Greece with friends tomorrow. Meanwhile volunteers at the food and drink stands on Kempische Steenweg are busy cleaning up. Romain from the Torpedo Hasselt football club explains that they sold sandwiches and drinks and are now clearing trash and taking down tents and wooden floors. He notes that everything went well thanks to many volunteers and the extra money will benefit their youth club. Some local kids are biking around with carts offering to carry festival-goers’ luggage for a small fee with Louis mentioning he made 400 euros over the past few days but hasn’t earned anything today yet hoping that will change soon.
