Kiki's Expedition Robinson Brabbels: Holland vs. Belgium

32 days ago, 16 candidates started an adventure in the Philippines. 8 Dutch, 8 Belgians. And honestly: it was a bit of a wait to see how this season would go. For the first time again ‘unknown’ Dutch. For the first time on Videoland. For the first time presented by Geraldine and Bartel.

The game was played hard. Under the burning sun and in pouring rain. Plots were hatched. Campmates were betrayed. This is the day we've all been looking forward to... Yes, islanders, these are... The 10 things we need to talk about in the final babbles.

1. Koen. From most hated Belgian to fucking folk hero. Omg. I. Wish. You. Spontaneously. That. Final spot. A. Buddy.

2. Sorry, what did you say? Jorik? Out of the game? Noooooo, right? Yes but: huh???? See, you can win so many challenges and then not the most important one. Robinson is not always about being the best, it's about peaking at the right moments.

3. Just something completely different, I don't want to ruin the festive mood or anything, but Thomas didn't actually propose to his wife after Robinson and is now with a new girlfriend. And the ring then? And the woman who was everything for you? Say whuuuut. Hahaha. Yeah sorry, what a pudding head.

4. Hahaha, Koen starting to sing ‘Lonely’ to keep his head cool. I don't know what it says about him that this is the first song that comes to mind. ‘I have nobaaaaadieeeee for my ownnn.’ And that whistle afterwards. Cracking up. This man understands our quarantine mood.

5. ‘I almost fell off from my own stink.’ Hey. Elroy. Go wash your armpits, dude. And are you winning a challenge now? Good for you, man!

6. ‘Never thought I could do something so feminine.’

Cracking up about those guys who first hate that massage and then almost babble like a drooling baby on those beds. Awesome.

7. Crazy or genius?

Koen about himself: ‘I can now say: genius.’

Okay, Koen.
I think so too.
Genius.

Hats off to the man who wore the same shirt for 32 days.

Yeah, that brown one.

Oh, uh...

8. Is the final challenge also recycled? Practically the same as the VIP version of this year, right? Naaaaa. A bit of an anticlimax. I would advise the makers to come up with more new games. Surprise effect = medium so.

9. Is it a bit too honest to say that Thomas's win feels a bit weird? I don't know, he seemed just a bit too confident or something. And because he felt like he had been on winner's island for months and kept eating and could gain strength. And didn't he end up there because the candidates at the hanging challenge ‘gave’ him the win because he missed home, the woman of his dreams? And now have a new girlfriend? Damn. It doesn't feel right, Tho.

Additionally: it was a bit annoying with Jorik that he won everything, but he was really a sympathetic dude that I would have wished the win for. But also ten feathers in the ass of Elroy and Koen, because anyone who lasts 32 days on that island is in my eyes a fucking winner.

So. That was it, guys. I enjoyed it. It's going to be hard to quit...

P.S..: Oh makers, can we please do a Robinson every year for unknowns? Diss Bartel a bit and put me next to Geraldine? I can easily pass for a Flemish, just ask her how my soft G skills are.

P.P.S.: NELLEKE WE MISS YOU LOVE YOU.
