Summertime in Europe is well-known for its abundance of tourists flooding the cities for vacations. But it is also known for the countless amount of festivals that are happening all over.
“What were your favorite highlights in Europe?” That was a question I was asked a bunch once I return from 3 months of backpacking through Europe. At that time I was so overwhelmed I had no idea how to answer. A few things stood out above the rest, but then I’d totally forget about something
Belgium seems to be a place in Western Europe that travelers don’t talk about much. Most people go right through it on their way to France or The Netherlands, and that’s a shame. There’s many things I enjoy about Belgium; but right at the top of that list is Belgian Chocolate.
There are many cities in the world that backpackers might describe as Fun, Wild, Lively, or even Boring; and I feel like I’ve been to quite a few of them. However one description that doesn’t seem to be mentioned as much as the others is: Romantic.
The title right there says it all. Thank You Belgium, I can never eat fries and feel satisfied ever again.
