My aunt says that Belgium has not much things to do and ask us not to go there but i still wanted to go there because of CHOCOLATE.haha.was i surprised to go there. Both of us woke up in our hotel still in Paris,feeling very tired because of that day before we slept around 2 am,so both of us has no energy today.Anyway,after packing our stuff and checking out, we carry on our journey to Brussels. Both of our bags are so heavy plus the LV's box is really really heavy and we bought some souveniors are getting really heavy.

So took our train to Brussels from Paris takes around 4 hours. Well,my first impression towards Brussels is the place is full of Arabian people or maybe those middle-east ppl.I'm not being stereotype or anything, just an opinion. Plus, another thing bout this city that it is kind of smelly as in the street is really dirty and smelly.Walk to our hostel,looks great in appearance. Then, we went to check in and check our room which is a 6 room dorm and well,our room has a lot of flies.I am not kidding, really hell lotz of flies flying around like there's garbage somewhere there plus the room is really smelly like the smell of urine.I am not kidding. Then,later there's a new roommate,from Australia. She also says that the room is stinky and disgusting. Well,anyway, this hostel is called Youth Hostel Van Gogh which cost 17 euro per nite. After talking for a while with the Aussie, we went out and check out the city.

Well, took the train and went to the city.I cant really remember the name, ate waffels which is really delicious and not really expensive.Oh yeah,the weather in Brussels is very hot. Then basically just walking around the city and do a little bit shopping.The street is something like Oxford Street in London.So,there's lotz of shopping to do.Then later, we went to see the comic strip musuem.Theres a lot of comic which are cool and there's even porn comic which is hilarious.Didnt know that Smurf was from Belgium. After checking the musuem,wanted to eat frities because never tried it before but couldnt find it.And both of us are tired with the walking and the really hot weather,and since there's nothing much to check in Brussels,we went back to our hostel.
