How do you feel about living in Brussels?
The first thing I noticed when I arrived here was how quiet and subdued the vibe of the city was.
Some might even say, boring.
“Wait for the weekend,” I thought.
But Saturday nights in the cool Saint-Gilles district also felt a bit lifeless and, unlike Rome, Venice or Madrid, there just seemed to be a sense that something was lacking.
On the outside it seems to have all the necessary parts to make a great city, but the soul of the place just seems to be .... on holiday somewhere else?
Do you know what I mean?
It's an OK place to work, but come the weekend now, I forget about the office and give myself something to look forward to with a quick, cheap, exciting weekend escape to one of over 40 budget flight destinations all over Europe all ranging in price between €10-€20.
I don't think flights have ever been so cheap in history, do you?
These prices probably won't stay around for long given that fuel prices are about to go up and I can't see these airlines surviving long term with such low prices.
So go on, treat yourself and give yourself something to look forward to next weekend!
Of all the cities I have explored on foot, Rome is by far my favourite.
I love losing myself in the culturally rich ancient lanes of the historic centre.
I love the rich, wafty aroma of freshly ground coffee that comes out of the cafes as I walk past and sharing a carafaki of local red wine over delicious Italian lunch in a trattoria.
I love the raucous humour and warmth of the locals and the passion that comes out of their mouths with every sentence.
