When is was a child i was a very happy and wild child. I lived in Rupelmonde in a cozy house. Back then i shared a room with my sister and sometimes when someone was scared we slept in the same bed and woke up in our own bed, what is found very confusing back then. I loved playing with my plushies and toys, My parents wanted me to share my toys with my sister but i didn't like that very much. I always wanted to annoy my sister but when she was hurt is was worried and helped her. My sister and i always played together but never shared our toys. My parents loved us both equally and took good care of us. When we faught they would put us in an corner and later we needed to apologize. Every summer we went to my grandparents in Peru and i would get loads of gifts and hugs. We then visited old friends of my mother and i would play with there children with my sister. I had no pets but i always wanted a kat. I was wearing a long sleeved t-shirt and jeans. I usually wore a t-shirt and trousers or a dress. I went to school at sint-janberchmans and theres where i met my friends who i still know!

When I was a child, I lived in a house in Kruibeke near Antwerp. We lived in a very calm street together with my sister who was 4 years old and my parents. I loved it annoy my sister but my parents didn't really liked it. I was going to school in Kruibeke together with my sister. We loved it being together on the same school because we can always play together and we saw each other all day. Every day was a fun day because school was easy back in the days. I think I've had an amazing childhood with everywhere family and friends around me and I would do anything to get it back! One of my favourite memories I have was when I leaved the kindergarten and go to the primary school, because that was where my real childhood began. I loved it on the primary school because that was the school where I learned my first words and learned how tho write my name. And the best thing of al I met my first friends who I stil have now a days!

When I was a child. I lived in a house in Kruibeke. In the picture you can see me and my older brother Tom. He is now 20 years old. And I am 14 years old. In the picture I was 3 years old and my brother was 9 years old. My brother and I loved to pose for the photo if my mom said so. We always pose with a smile on our faces. We usually went for a walk. Sometimes I like it but sometimes I don’t like it. In this picture I guess I liked it. What my favorite activity to do was to go to the playground with my brother. I really liked that! When we finished playing we were always hungry and thirsty obviously. So my favorite food was fries with chicken nuggets. Which is now still my favorite. My favorite drink was Fristi because I just liked the color and the flavor but I don’t drink it anymore. Now lets talk about my clothes my clothes were always picked by my mom. She selected what I wore. She always picked the cutest colors. Now that was a bit of my childhood. I hope you liked it!

When i was younger, I lived in a house in Hoboken. We had a park near our house and it was a daily routine to go play there after school. Almost all the children in the neighborhood were there, so everyone knew each other. I didn't like going back home I always wanted to continue playing in the park with my friends. I liked candy and caprisun but was not allowed to eat it very often usually we would get it from the store right around the corner. I found broccoli and Brussels sprouts disgusting but now I can just eat them and don't find them so gross anymore.I just wore what my mum used to make me wear so dresses mostly and a frozen set from H&M, or something pink. On the picture I'm wearing a pink hat and it matches with my scarf, and a pink coat. You can also see my sister on the right side and me on the left side of the photo she is 6 years older then me, in the picture i was 3-4 years. I went to a school where almost the whole town went so in school everyone knew each other.

When i was a little kid, I was very cute! But I looked very angry. I loved food a lot because my dad food was really tasty. He could make the best things ever. But there was one thing I went crazy for... I went crazy for baguette. I liked baguette because it was really big, I liked to eat the middle because it was really soft and just yum yum. I didn't like the crust because it was really hard so when I was eating baguette, I only eat the middle. The thing I also really liked about a baguette was because it was really big. I loved to run around in the house with it. And use it as my shield to hide from my parents. But because I was little, I always have to wear an apron because otherwise. I would made my clothes dirty, and my mom didn’t like that so I just did it on so I can eat my huge baguette and then enjoy my baguette!!

When I was a child like the photo when I was 3 years old, I think. I was waiting for dinner. I loved food at the time (still). I lived in Kruibeke in the same house as now. I live in a quiet area. Where I would not leave. My favorite drink was fanta the same as it is now. I ate everything with yogurt and ketchup. The food I could eat every day was sarma (a Turkish dish). Now 10 years later I make it monthly. When I was a kid, I loved sports. I was 3 years old when I started swimming. I did it for 8 years and I swimmed competition for two years. Unfortunately, I had to stop by corona. I always wear different clothes because my mother always dressed me. I had my pajamas and a baby bibs on. My school was the same school as Yanis and Zenna. My father grew up in Kruibeke and my mom in Sint - Niklaas. And my brother went to school in Kruibeke until his 15th. I had no pets at that time and still not because my dad is afraid of most animals.

I spent most of my childhood in the Netherlands Overrijsel Hengelo. I was a pretty handful to my parents. What I liked the most was playing Minecraft with my friends and going outside with my friends. We would do either 2 things playing football games or breaking the laws like intruding someone’s home. What I liked eating there was fast food mainly KFC. We would go to KFC it was so close I could bike there in like 10-15 minutes, but I could never go alone. But with all my heart I hated fish. My dad every summer went to Congo to take care of his second family and see friends and family he still does thill this day. When he came back, he brought all sorts of gifts and food. But the fish it reeked my whole house for a week I hated it. My parents always made me try it but every time it was the most disgusting thing I ever ate. My clothes were very basic and cheap almost my whole closet was from Primark.  On the picture I was wearing just a white T-shirt with a random quote, and I don’t remember anything else. Maybe you didn’t know but Sint Joris is my 5th school 3 in the Netherlands and 2 in Belgium. But I am just going to talk about elementary school. So, in the Netherlands I was moved to a special school because I had anger problems and there, I spent the rest of my school days in the Netherlands. When I was about 8, I moved to Belgium Antwerp Merksem. It was a very big change so much traffic and so much city, but I loved every second of it. The school there were very busy but also different first of almost everybody wasn’t from Belgium. Most people there were from lands far away. There was always something going on during breaks its either fighting, crying because from an accident or something else which made it kind of fun. The rest was just ordinary school activities. So, for my family I’m just going to keep it short. My younger sister is now 11 years old and is always calling and, on her phone, playing Roblox. My brother is just always in his room only leaving for food, toilet use or work. My dad is always trying to get some rest because he only works overnight so mostly, he is on the couch sleeping of watching tv. My mother work is helping old people at a retirement home. She always prays before going outside, sleep or wake up. She does mostly take care of our home cleaning and such and that was everything.

When I was a child, I lived in a house in Temse on the Krijgsbaan.

When I was 3 years old, my parents decided to move to an other street in Temse, where I live now.

I loved playing wit my cousin and my older brother. We loved playing with playmobile and with the Hotweels cars. We often went to the playground to have a lot of fun and play games with each other.

In this picture I was 5 or 6 six years old and we were on holiday to the Netherlands during the autumn holidays. During this time I always loved short hair. I just colored a drawing of the supposed mascot of the camping named Koos the rabbit. Ever since I was little I liked apples a lot, I ate very healthy food every day but I didn’t like vegetables, like red cabbage and chicory.

When I was little, I thought red was the best color. It was my favorite color making everything more fun. Every day was fun because school was easy back then, full of excitement. The smell of freshly cut grass takes me back to those summer days outside playing with cousins or friends.

Spaghetti was my favorite food back then, It was so yummy. Those long strings of pasta on my plate always looked like little parties, and the sauce made it even better. I remember my parent would always laugh at me when my entire face was covered with spaghetti sauce.

I think I’ve had an amazing childhood with everywhere family and friends around me and I would do anything to get it back.

When i was a child i loved playing with my little sister. In this picture i was 4,5 years old. In the picture, i was wearing my favorite blue dress, and i was also wearing my pink glasses. I was holding a juice box. I had seen my mom take this picture and I started laughing. At that time, I lived in a small house in Ruppelmonde. The house was still big enough for the family I also had 2 cats at that time. I slept in the attic with my little sister, sometimes we would talk when our parents were downstairs after tucking us in. They never knew, but most of the days we were too tired to say anything, and we just went directly to sleep. In the morning I would have a bath and then put on my clothes, they were mostly colorful. Then I would go downstairs and have breakfast which mostly consisted of cereal with milk. Then I would go to school, i was always happy to see my friends and get to play with them. After school I would do my homework and start playing with my favorite toys. My favorite food at that time was spaghetti, especially my grandma’s recipe. I really loved her (I still do) she was one of my favorite people to go visit, When we were in the car and saw that we were at my grandma’s house I would start dancing because I loved going there. She had my favorite book which was a really old book that my dad also used to play with, the book was about learning to count. I loved that book because it had a really cute mouse in it. She also had this princess castle that she bought in a vintage store it was really old but I loved playing with it. I also have a lot of aunts and uncle's we weren’t with a lot of children and I was the oldest of all of them. A little bit later in the future, I moved to Kruibeke in my current house I went to a new school and had to make new friends. A few people who were in my class at that time are also In my class right now. I am so happy that I got to experience that childhood and I am grateful for the people that I had around me.

In this picture I was four or five years old. I always wore a white shirt and a blue pair of jeans. In this picture I was holding my niece's hand. She was looking at me and I was looking at her. We were smiling.
The other boy in the picture is my brother. We were always together.
