Bingeing in Brussels: A Small Scrumptious Capital

Last week, I was in the bitty Belgian city of Brussels (or Bruxelles in French or Brussel in Dutch) with…

32. Eventually all the men in hostels start to look the same to you. They are all of medium height, moderate levels of scruffy attractiveness, and speak with a semi-interesting/sexy accent. A similar comparison can be said about the women; however, the female variety often showers more and does not have five o’clock shadows.

55. It’s best not to be a picky eater when traveling, and personally, I think this is true about life in general. It just makes everything so much more complicated. And, complications during travel should be avoided even if they are small. It’s not the end all be all though.

64. Contrary to popular belief, Americans aren’t the only obnoxious, monolingual travellers.
