I can already say that those expectations have been exceeded. I am learning a lot about the working life and the organization itself. I work closely with my colleagues in the office, teamwork is important. The tasks that I get from them vary every day. This is because everyone has different responsibilities. For example, one assignment has to do with the press, the other with the trade-world. During this internship, I am making good use of the knowledge I have received in the bachelor of Tourism and Recreation Management. The course \u2018Tourism in Belgium\u2019 is helping me a lot, because it is important to have a solid knowledge about Belgium (Flanders) in this organization .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visit Flanders organiseert af en toe evenementen, hier heb ik er een paar van kunnen meemaken. Bij de evenementen worden vooral journalisten en bloggers uitgenodigd. Deze mensen komen, op een aangename manier, meer te weten over Vlaanderen. De intentie is dat zij op hun website gaan schrijven over deze evenementen. Hierin motiveren ze hun lezers om Vlaanderen te ontdekken. Het hoofddoel van Visit Flanders London is om mensen, uit het Verenigd Koninkrijk en Ierland, bewust te maken van de vele troeven van Vlaanderen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tour of Flanders Lunch was \u00e9\u00e9n van de evenementen die ik heb meegemaakt. Op dit event werd de gastronomie en de wielercultuur van Belgi\u00eb in de kijker gezet. Er kwam een chef-kok uit Ronse, die ook een wielerfanaat is, naar hier om te koken voor de aanwezigen. Er werd gekookt met ingredi\u00ebnten uit Belgi\u00eb gepaard met gepaste bieren. Hieronder vind je enkele foto&#8217;s terug van het evenement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow aligncenter\" data-effect=\"slide\"><div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_container swiper-container\"><ul class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_swiper-wrappper swiper-wrapper\"><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4608\" height=\"3456\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-463\" data-id=\"463\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.mmm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/kok-min-3.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/kok-min-3.jpg 4608w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/kok-min-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/kok-min-3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/kok-min-3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/kok-min-3-1200x900.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_caption gallery-caption\">Speech van Didier, de chef-kok<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-464\" data-id=\"464\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.mmm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Starter-1.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Starter-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Starter-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Starter-1-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_caption gallery-caption\">Het Voorgerecht<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-465\" data-id=\"465\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.mmm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Main-3.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Main-3.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Main-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Main-3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Main-3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Main-3-1200x900.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_caption gallery-caption\">Het hoofdgerecht<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide swiper-slide\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_image wp-image-466\" data-id=\"466\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.mmm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Dessert-2.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Dessert-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Dessert-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sites.mm.ehb.be\/trm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/111\/2019\/06\/Dessert-2-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_caption gallery-caption\">Het dessert<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><a class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-prev swiper-button-prev swiper-button-white\" role=\"button\"><\/a><a class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-next swiper-button-next swiper-button-white\" role=\"button\"><\/a><a aria-label=\"Pause Slideshow\" class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_button-pause\" role=\"button\"><\/a><div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_pagination swiper-pagination swiper-pagination-white\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This kind of event requires a lot of preparation time where the interns are closely involved in.
