I'd actually never heard of Mannekin Pis before I moved to Brussels and read some tourist guides, but it was one of the first things I saw when I got there. I have to say, though, that it was by accident, I was just strolling around and happened to stumble upon it, but I am guilty of taking a picture (and many more on later occasions when he was dressed up for the different holidays...). He is a rather absurd symbol of a country and I always laugh a little when I walk by, seeing all the tourists snapping away. But then I remind myself that I was once one of them :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995719599367778372.post-32271501444449985852010-07-09T17:44:35.453+02:002010-07-09T17:44:35.453+02:00HI Melissa,
I agree with you, for the last 10 year...HI Melissa,<br />I agree with you, for the last 10 years I lived in air-conditionned places like Tokyo, New York and Atlanta (Hotlanta): Despite having more than 100F and humidity in those three cities it was better than 85F without air conditionning. The problem, I was freezing inside so always got a sweater for shopping. Me too I live in Ixelles near Flagey. I am French but very much "internationalized" even "americanized".<br />I don't like beer but I appreciate the lifestyle in Brussels, great cosy restaurants cafes with terraces, open markets. This is my first year in Brussels and I did not see much rain so I enjoyed Nordic walking in the foret de Soignes.

Motorcycles? Yes. Racing bicycles? Again yes. But on normal bicycles going at a leisurely pace to the shops?! Is it really worth the helmet hair?? .... :)Jovankahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14755848364041852854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995719599367778372.post-13072788178145732522010-04-20T12:15:28.982+02:002010-04-20T12:15:28.982+02:00Kriek is a popular morning beer :)

I was doing some research online and came ...Hello,<br /><br />I was doing some research online and came across your blog. I hope you don't mind me reaching out to you. I'm a casting assistant in New York for a popular show about people relocating outside North America. It's called House Hunters International and airs on the Home & Garden cable network (HGTV). We are casting people for this show right now and I was wondering if you or anyone you know would be interested in participating.<br /><br />Our show consists of a family or couple who has relocated in the past few years and the property they have purchased. The purpose of the show is to demystify the process of moving and living abroad. You can learn more about our show and watch episodes here: http://www.hgtv.com/house-hunters-international/show/index.html. <br /><br />Putting together an episode with you would be a real treat for our audience and it's a lot of fun for you too. Contributors to the show get a nice keepsake shot in HD video and also receive compensation for your time and efforts. <br /><br />If you or anyone you know is interested in learning more, please contact me at househunterscasting@leopardfilms.com. Thank you in advance for your prompt feedback on this. Have a wonderful day!HH Internationalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08548759528702227574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995719599367778372.post-30892695049555601202010-03-15T21:28:34.864+01:002010-03-15T21:28:34.864+01:00Where's today's post???
