Brussel


Hey all.

We're here in Brussel now and having a great time.

On saturday we hitch-hiked from Antwerp and got a ride with some cool maroccon guys. Once in Brussel we checked out the city a bit and then met up with Sietske our host and Ollie. She's a really nice person and was willing to host us even though she recently had a cycling accident and wasn't feeling too good. We really appreciate her taking us in.

On sunday we looked around the city some more. The focus was to find a free wifi spot so we could search for our next hosts in Lille and Paris. After a few hours we ended up in McDonalds and soon enough had an couch offer from Steven from Lille. We accepted his offer and are looking forward to meeting him (and his cat).

After walking around town some more we did a little shopping for some groceries and then cooked dinner with Sietske. She made a great salad with tomatoes, mozarella, lentils and vinegar. In the evening we spent a couple of more hours sitting in McDonalds and searching for hosts.

Tomorrow we're going to get up early to check out the fleemarket and later take part of a CS city tour event. Sietske also made some awesome muffins for breakfast so can't wait for morning.

Stay tuned for more from Brussel.

Note of the day: Don't go to the Royal Park in Brussel at night and for free WiFi go to McDonalds!
