French classes in Brussels with Alliance Francaise
Last month we had the great pleasure of meeting Assiye, who house-sat for us while we were in Morocco. Making the most of her month in Brussels, she enrolled in an Alliance Francaise French class. Today she shares her story:
Back in December, we took a getaway trip to Lille, France with iDBUS. Despite its proximity to Brussels, we had never visited the French city before and we had no idea it was such a foodie paradise.
Pro Velo Bicycle tours of Brussels
Last fall, I discovered a ‘greener’ side to Brussels, with a Pro Velo bicycle tour to a community garden in Etterbeek. The garden was another of Brussels’ hidden gems and, the best part – I didn’t die.
We share a short photo essay from our month in Morocco, including Tangier, Chefchaouen, and Tetouan, and Andalucia, Spain.
Belgium, I love you
