Hello again, guys! I’m baaaack. I’m not sure if anyone’s waiting for me but I’m just going to let you know that I have a new post for you. If you follow me on instagram, you should’ve known by now that I went to Brussels last week. We had the worst luck during this trip: our bus broke down on the way there, it rained on and off during most of our time there, it stormed in Germany while we were in Belgium which ruined our train schedule and we were pretty much stranded on our way home. But I’m glad we went there, which is something I’d been wanting to do since last semester. It was, all in all, a rather fun albeit seemingly short trip.
This post has been broken down into four parts from the originally compiled post.
First and foremost, this isn’t a sponsored post whatsoever. But the place where we stayed was super comfortable and lovely that I feel like I needed to mention it. So we stayed at the Meininger Hostel, which we stayed at before in Cologne. It was affordable, comfortable and nice that we decided why not stay there again – which was our cheapest and easiest option to begin with. When I booked the beds, I didn’t know how awesome this place was going to be. I can’t speak for all their hostels but the one in Brussels had extra aesthetic points. I would say it’s the perfect housing for students since it felt like a dorm (but probably cleaner and more organised).
It says to be the urban artist’s home and I don’t doubt it, judging from the barrel-like computer hotspot and bottle chandelier. They accommodate us with a shared kitchen as well as 24-hour bar. It was filled with awesome interior elements and the people seem to be friendly and respectful of one another. The bar is also non-alcohol-friendly, which is saying a lot for a bar. There are also vending machines, if you ever have a hankering for snacks in the middle of the night, as well as a pool and foosball table at the bar. Highly recommended, if you ever consider staying in Brussels!
That was my Brussels trip. It was kind of hard to find time to fit everything in – especially with the limited opening hours and all – since we all wanted to see different things. Personally, I would’ve been happy just roaming the streets, appreciating the architectural beauty as well as the lifestyle of the citizens. It would have been awesome to just drink in the culture as well as the art nouveau treasures. Iva, on the other hand, is a sucker for palaces, castles and gothic plus baroque style buildings. Firu is just happy to be out and about. So to fit everything in, we had to rush from one place to the other. But it was still possible to just breathe and take in everything around us. Above are some random photos, which don’t fit into any of the categories. Enjoy!
