I hated Brussels… it was so depressing. I took the high-speed train from Amsterdam… my introduction to the city was stepping into Midi Station, which smelled like a urinal. The sheer number of homeless people was shocking. No one cared about them either, they were sat on the ground surrounded by garbage 💔
It’s like Marseille without the sun and friendly Southern vibes, that’s what it reminds me of, especially the Midi area. I recall walking nearby and there’s like a tunnel where the tram goes by, and people had set up tents and impromptu “restaurants” in it. What a mess. But my brother and his lady just went to Bruges and they said it was beautiful so it’s not like the whole of Belgium is as ugly. 🙏
