I traveled to Belgium for 5 days. Visited Brussels, Bruges, and Ghent. It was simply magical. I highly recommend Belgium as it is safe, central to so many places in Europe, and since it is such a small country, it's easy to get around.
Posted: August 11, 2023I went on a solo trip to Belgium. Stayed in Brussels and then went to Ghent and Bruges. Such charming cities. Loved it
Posted: August 9, 2023Belgium is a gorgeous country with so many amazing places to see. Brussels is stunning with so many interesting places to see, gorgeous architecture, museums, etc. Antwerp is also amazing and has a very different feel to it than Brussels. Lots of forward-thinking designers are from there. Ghent is spectacular and Brugge very pretty. If you’re into WWI history, lots to see in Ypres and Flanders.
Posted: June 11, 2023I did an 8-day trip to Belgium, stayed 4 nights in Bruges (St Christopher's Inn), and 4 nights in Brussels (Latroupe Grand Place). Made a day trip to Ghent (from Bruges) and a day trip to Antwerp (from Brussels) and I did walking tours in both Ghent and Antwerp. Bruges is definitely the highlight of my trip, would 100% recommend visiting there. Brussels was just another city, with plenty of museums and great nightlife though.
Posted: May 22, 2023I had an amazing time in Brussels and did not encounter any safety issues, despite reading some negative experiences from others. I even wandered around at night taking photos. Gent is absolutely stunning and it captured a special place in my heart. As for Bruges, it is undeniably beautiful, although it can be quite touristy which is not usually my preference, but still worth a visit.
Posted: April 30, 2023I did my first-ever solo trip to Belgium in October and loved it. I started in Antwerp then went to Bruges which was gorgeous. I did a hot air balloon ride over the place. Then went to Brussels and did a day trip to Ghent from there. Everywhere was very easy to navigate via tram/train/bus. The language wasn't an issue as the majority of places had good English.
Posted: April 23, 2023The first time i decide to go on a long solo trip and booked myself a ticket to Belgium through a travel agency. Reason i chose them was the traveling cost and the time. It was only a one day trip but i was a bit nervous and excited to travel with strangers. Yet i was excited to get to know new people and get along with them and take a tour around the place. It was a night journey, managed to know 3-4 ppl after reaching the destination and wandered around the places , took pictures and laughed alot like we knew each other for a long time. Half way I met another Person wandering alone from my country, we spoke the same language, got along really well, and spent the entire day together comfortably exploring the places. Although I started alone, there wasn't a single moment I felt alone throughout the trip and I'm glad I'm still in touch with the People and have been good friends for an year now. There were alot of things to take back from that trip which made me take few more solo trips, meet more people.
Posted: April 17, 2023Experienced: March, 2022I traveled in November last year and I absolutely loved Belgium. I went to Brussels and Bruges and they were so beautiful. And the food was amazing. Waffles and chocolates and fries. I also did my favorite free walking tours there. I did a night one in Bruges on local legends and ghost stories and it was so interesting.
Posted: April 2, 2023I managed to do 3 cities in Belgium in 4 days as everything was so close together. I visited Antwerp, Ghent and Brugge. I actually loved Antwerp. Brugge was my second favorite.
Posted: March 8, 2023I was in Belgium at the end of August. I stayed in Brussels. It was great. I highly recommend the Sanderman’s walking tour. They take you everywhere and you get to learn a lot about the place you’re visiting. The Grand Square is beautiful. I also did a day trip to Bruges. If you are a foodie try Belgium waffles and frites (French fries) with mayo.

Hi! I come originally from Spain but I've worked and lived abroad for the past 25 years. Since 2016 I've changed career paths to me more aligned with my values. I no longer work as a consultant in a big company, instead I accompany women throughout their entire motherhood (including birth). I'm also a qualified massage therapist and I'm fascinated by creating significant human interactions... Having a cup of coffee and a chat with a good friend or even a total stranger can save lives ❤️🔥

Hi ! I’m a French cheese lover, roller derby player and a young journalist. I love investigative journalism and to report about climate and the industry. I grew up in a small town very close to Disneyland Paris, which might have left me with long-term trauma, but I'm coping quite well :)

I'm a linguist, avid reader, and lover of words and puzzles. I love a good stimulating conversation or activity; board games and escape rooms top the list. I look forward to talking with intelligent and interesting people, and ultimately would like to do in-person activities with someone who is also vaccinated!
