Brussels.

I came without many preconceptions of, or knowing much about Brussels. Just that I have a friend here and it makes sense to stop by between Paris and Amsterdam. It´s been amazing to have someone who has lived here for a while show us around, it´s always better. It´s very small which is nice after walking miles in Paris. There are brilliant flea markets and vintage and antiques shops everywhere which always give you a bit ,ore insight into the local culture I think - I didn´t mention, but we came across a very strange `market ´ in Paris, where lots of slightly shady-looking men were selling anything and everything - things they had found or the only possessions they had - from calculators to doll´s heads to tea cups and more. very bizarre, and a bit unnerving.
Anyway, on to Brussels. It´s really felt like I have lived here briefly, which i really want to try to carry on with on the rest of the trip. So far the highlight was winning random found goods at a bingo night and seeing an old lady do a high kick. Amazing. Here´s some more eye feasts...

Task #59. Ask people what they think is a stereotype of that place (before you go), then set out on a mission to find and photograph them

Brussels: "medium build, puffa jacket, American accent..."
