Ixelles is one of the best (if not THE best) neighbourhoods to stay in Brussels. It’s close enough to the city centre for shorter stays, and has everything you for longer ones!
Belgium
Belgium is a beautiful and highly underrated country in Europe. See where I’ve been and the travel tips I have before your next trip there
Craving a traditional Belgian Liege waffle but can’t go to Belgium? Living in Canada, getting to Belgium isn’t exactly the easier. So I found a way to make the best Belgian Liege waffles at home!
The Brussels comic book walls are one of the most unique things I’ve ever seen in a city. Of course I’ve seen graffiti before, even ones commissioned by the city. But, the Brussels comic book walls are so much more than street art.
September is all around a pretty solid month to travel around Europe, and Belgium is no exception.
Discovering the wonderful world of Belgian beer can be a bit overwhelming at first. There’s no hiding it, there’a lot to take in. They brew over 2000 different beers in over 200 active breweries. Included in those are some of the best beers in the world!
I originally thought spending a day in Brussels was all you needed to explore the city. After living in Brussels for a month, I stumbled on so many hidden gems that you need to visit! Some are more off the beaten path than others, but well worth staying longer to have time to make your way there!
Both Namur and Dinant share a lot of similarities so there’s really no need to visit both. Especially if you’re only in Belgium for a limited time, you should choose to visit one or the other based on your interests.
When you’re looking up where to go in Belgium, you might stumble upon Dinant. It’s a photographers, bloggers, and Instagrammers dream! I mean talk about an Instagram worthy backdrop. But I’m here to show you that Dinant Belgium is a lot more than just a good view.
If you’re looking for a more regular café scene, you’ll want to look for coffee shops. Here’s a list of the coffee shops we found around Brussels and what they’re best suited for!
Belgium is all about beer, did you know they have over 3 000 different beers? So a good souvenir from Belgium to bring back are the bottle caps of the beer you tried. You can then make these into magnets for your fridge!
