Brussels pt.2


Brussels is cool because it's a small city, easy to discover. It was a great trip mostly because of the food. I've tried Belgian chocolate, waffles and fies, chestnuts and I went to Laduree and Le Pain Quotidien. Above you can see Maasmechelen Village (about 2,5 hour away) where I couldn't find anything to buy. Here are some pictures from outlet, European district and rest of the Brussels.

 
Mont des Arts



European Parliament where we had a trip (guide took us to the meeting room).


Inside the Notre-Dame


Dinner at Maasmechelen Village, pizza was probably five times greater than my head.




Christmas market at Place Sainte Catherine
 
 
 Brussels Stock Exchange
 



Black & gold




Christmas at the Maasmechelen Village
 



 
Ralph Lauren Home




That sweet grandpa showed us how to make chocolate and after that there was the best part- degustation. If you're in Brussels I definitely recommend to visit Museum of Cocao and Chocolate.




Healthy brunch at Le Pain Quotidien  





Grand Place and beautiful St. Hubert Royal Galleries




From the top of the Big Wheel, it was my fist time and it was AWESOME haha I guess I'm still a kid.





Thanks Brussels, you were great ;)
 

Brussels

The first time I've seen seaside in Dublin haha.

Place du Grand Sablon
It's a day before Christmas Eve. I've spent it with a small group of people in Poland but it was a nice evening anyway. I'm close to accomplish my December list (now I need only to finish The Great Gatsby, create New Year resolutions, watch Home Alone 2, see some friends and enjoy Christmas spirit). Two days ago I came from Brussels so here's the photo diary :)
First lunch at Laduree


At Pierre Marcolini. While writing this post I'm eating those macaroons and listening Christmas songs in my bedroom full of Christmas lights, couldn't be better.

Waffles, can't imagine how fat I would be after them.


They had hundreds of shops only with chocolate! Did you know that in Belgium people eat 12 kilograms of chocolate per year? No wonder why...



Like in Paris <3



Grand Place by day...


and by night.




Court des Comptes and  Notre-Dame de la Chapelle




 I've tried chestnuts for the first time at Christmas market (they were ok).





 Fist time at Filippa K as well.







Laduree again and again, too pretty not to take photos.





 Palace Royal and Mannekin Pis- symbol of Brussels.

Barcelona part 2


Yesterday I wrote the last two exams and now the school is finally over. Today it was all about chilling (watching movies with Til Schweiger- third one this week haha and trying Christmas chocolate in Starbucks). Now I can finally focus on Brussels <3 and and accomplishing my Christmassy list (even Jusin Bieber is not able to ruin my good mood- it's too late to say sorry cause tickets to his concert in Dublin were sold out in 8 minutes, crazy Irish people). Tomorrrow we're hanging out to purchase the presents and maybe buy some food for Christmas Eve in Poland. Here's second and the last one post from Barcelona. Above you can see most of the things I've bought in Barcelona.




The MACBA building is so beautiful. Btw it's a good spot to find a boyfriend- a lot of skateboarders.



I could live in Barcelona because of the fact that I would be able to buy fresh figs at la Boqueria everyday.
 














Mexico in Spain and Placa Reial
 
 Our district
 
Chosing sunnies, I went for classics this time
