in my opinion antwerp is such an underrated city. everybody talks about bruxel but in antwerp you can see a small version of bruxel already. it is historic, calm, ppl are so kind and put together. definitely a city i would wanna visit again!

Brussels is very pretty city, it is like a transaction point of two cultures and it was lovely to even just walk around the city, yet as the sun goes down it is a good idea to be little more careful, especially if you are close to Brussels north or Brussels midi, stay safe 🐰💕

I would consider Beussels relatively safe especially for queer people. Some awkward stares but other than that it's okay! Maybe some areas are to avoid but I have not had any issues personally as a queer POC

I've been going there regularly for a long time, and I've never had any problems myself. But I would say that areas such as Brussels North station, Avenue Louise and Rue d'Aerschot are the most sensitive locations.

Overall Brussels is safe and in my 7 years of living here I have never had any problems. But just like any European city be cautions about your belongings and don’t go to sketchy neighborhoods late at night.

About me
Hi! I'm a busy student at the University of Ghent. Animals are my passion, more specifically horses. I enjoy loads of little projects and social activities. As a board member of a student organisation, I love to spend my evenings with friends in the city, doing activities or organising them. My hobbies and interests are very broad, from caring for my horse, to poledancing or ballroom dancing, to crocheting or reading a book (these last two are less prominent these days due to my busy schedule unfortunately). Travelling has always had a special place in my heart, I work hard throughout the year to finance my little trips with friends. More than 5 months spent without travelling makes me go crazy!🤪 Italy has a very special place in my heart and tends to be my go-to destination when I need an escape from daily life in Ghent!
