Al mijn bagage gejat :-(

Soms zit het mee, soms zit het tegen. Al mijn bagage is van mijn hotelkamer gestolen. Ik had alles in mijn backpack zitten en ze hebben mijn hele backpack meegenomen :-(. Dus op wat ik bij me droeg (paspoort etc.) na ben ik alles kwijt :-(. Ook mijn laptop, met iedereens e-mail adressen. Dus...
