BRUSSELS FOR TWO DAYS

It’s been a while now since I actually went to Brussels but it was a fun lil two days with my study association. We got very very lucky with the weather since it was sunny, and honestly made the city appear quite pretty (I wasn’t expecting that haha). Obviously we were going with the purpose of it being a political trip so our schedule was filled with a trip to a lobbying business, the permanent representation of The Netherlands to Belgium, the European Commission and NATO. All were super interesting but I must say NATO was for sure my favorite. It’s quite an impressive building and as a political science student it was super interesting to hear what they had to say. I was thinking that maybe I could see myself working in Brussels, since it has such an international community and it could be an good career choice. But I’m not sure, these were just random thoughts going through my head haha. I’m really glad I got to experience the city though and not just as a tourist but as student – makes quite the difference. The stay was only one night so I can’t really make any recommendations but I would say if you can visit NATO. It also has great historical relevance making it quite the memorable visit!
