Brussels Day 1

I decided to today quite slow, since it was another short train ride today. So after checking out of my hostel, I walked to get some bahn mi for lunch, then I walked to the beautiful park to eat it! It was a very peaceful lunch. Then I walked back to my hostel and stopped by a super cool like boho hippie type shop. Then around 2 i decided to say goodbye to the Netherlands, and go to catch the train to Belgium! A brisk train ride brought my to the town of Brussels. After checking into my hostel and dropping my stuff off, I headed first over to the St. Michael Cathedral, and checked out the inside as well. Then, I walked to the city centre and checked out the whole area pretty much. Lots of pubs, restaurants, and little shops lined the streets. I went to see the Grand Place which is like the main central area, it’s quite beautiful. I went to get a kebab-type thing to eat for dinner, and continued to check out the shops around the area. I went into this super cool like tapestry shop. And it had sooooo many tapestries that were really beautiful to look at. It was weird though because the other half of the store was like a convenience/souvenir type of store. I also saw the Mannequin Pis which is like a fountain that has a little boy peeing out the water LOL. After that, I went to a café and got some ice cream and finished off the book that I’ve been working at! Headed back to the hostel after that!Read more
