New Adventures

A new city, a new neighborhood, a new University, a new outlook on life- and of course, new adventures. Brussels is a city that has something cultural, fun or just plain entertaining to do every second of every day. This weekend- my first in Brussels- was particularly lively. Elisabeth Park, which is just outside of my apartment, hosted a festival, and Sunday was a day without cars in Brussels. Street performers, marching bands and many small booths were set up throughout the city. Grand Place was filled with people and Peruvian flute bands. I walked from area to area discovering the new and unusual that will be interesting to visit throughout my year here. I think this year will be awesome. The people I have met so far and the places I have seen give me that hope.
