Some time ago, I had a chance to visit
Belgium. I was curious to see the country where the central important
structures of the European Union are located, but they did not
impress me much. At least not as much as the country itself. Walking
most central Belgian streets you feel as if you are back in history,
as most buildings are very well preserved. Of course, without knowing
Dutch, French or German is a little hard to communicate with the native people,
especially outside Brussels, but it is manageable:).
When going to a new country, I always
try to see what it is famous for and experience something. Belgium is
known for beer (really good!), chocolate (super delicious
pralines!), waffles (you can try..) and french fries with
mayonnaise. As you may have guessed, I tried beer, chocolate and
waffles. I do not remember waffles well, but I can tell that beer and
chocolates are worth trying and bringing as souvenirs. I checked
which chocolate companies are worth trying and I was super happy that
I went to “Neuhaus”. They allow you to try a few pralines and
decide which ones you would like to take. It is a bit pricy, but
definitely worth trying! On another note, soon, heading to London!
Any suggestions on what to see, where to eat and spend time would be
highly appreciated :) Have a nice week!
