#1 The outfit.
#2 Food.
Your outfit is the first thing you need to think about.
You have so many options, it is unbelievable. Go
to a carnaval store and you will see how much dutch
people love carnaval. The best tip I give you is: It
doesn’t matter what you wear, with carnaval you
can dress up as everything! Ok but back to the point,
of coure you want to look good and a bit creative.
Also think about that in February it is freezind cold
in Holland. If you want to buy a carnavals outfit you
can either go to a carnavals shop or search online.
These are examples of outfits for boys and girls:
Ok guys, food is one of the important things before
you go out to celebrate carnaval. We all know what
happens when you don’t eat enough and had a few
drinks to much. So a strong healthy meal is important
before you hit off to the city center. Also we all know
the graving for fat food we get when we have alcohol in our system. Luckily with carnaval there are a lot
of stands where you can buy any greasy food you like!
Girls, didn’t we all used to love fantasying
about being snow white?
With carnaval you can’t pay with cash money. You need to buy special carnaval coins which
you can use during the whole carnaval. We know
that every one likes beer but truts me, it is really the most less expensive drink during this festivity!
So for the people who like to drink other stuff, it is
a good idea to buy a bunge of alcohol and get together wit you friends to a ‘’little’’ pre-drink party.
Now it is finally your chance! Not exactly the outfit that
we thought we would wear one day, but obvioiusly,
this is the more adult version. Snow white managed
to meet her prince charming, so think about how many
you will meet with this outfit! To summarize it all: this is
the perfect outfit for all the cheeky girls out there.
We this one is for all the cheeky guys
And of course you guys know that girls like cheeky and
tough guys. Since everyone knows what is under a Scottish skirt, or better to say, what is NOT under a Scottish skirt. This is the best opportunity to be a dare devil
and hit on some girls with this original Scottish outfit!
#3 The Booze.
#4 Places to go
Actually with carnaval there is no place where you
can’t go in Breda. Every club or bar is open to celebrate this festivity with hundreds of other people.
Good news for the real die hards is that you can
also celebrate it the whole day instead of only in the
evening. When you do this though, you better drink
a few bottles of water between all those alcoholic drinks. There are also a lot of people on the big
market in Breda who are celebrating it outside, which
gives a great vibe. On monday the 16th of February there is a carnavals parade in the city center,
which is a really big thing during carnaval. Everyone
should see a carnavals parade in their lives once!
Bottom line of this carnavals guide is that you have no reason to not celebrate carnaval. Get togetherwithyou friends for
food, drinks, a great 5 days of partying and a unforgettable time!.
