Early September 2016: Brussels Mornings and Lunchtime Wanderings

avatar

Ah, September 2016—back when I was working in the heart of Brussels. Those were the days when my lunch breaks weren’t just about grabbing a quick bite but were spent exploring the beautiful, sometimes forgotten corners of this historic city.

Every morning, I’d arrive at Brussels Central railway station and enjoy a quiet, early walk to the office, often timed perfectly with the sunrise. The golden light hit the buildings just right, making the city feel like a postcard come to life. You don’t realize how much you miss those moments until you’re reflecting on it years later.

My lunch breaks? Oh, those were my little daily adventures. Wandering through the streets, taking in the architecture, and discovering new views of the city every day. The old center of Brussels has so much character, from the statues standing proudly against dramatic skies to the vibrant street corners with a mix of old-world charm and modern vibes.

It was a time of simplicity and beauty, where every walk felt like a brief escape into something timeless.
