Italian Soiree 2015 Day 1: Brussels & Segrate

Wednesday definitely feels like it was a whirlwind. After a flight that seemed to wiz by (with barely any sleep), we arrived in Brussels just before 8am local time. We wasted no time in getting through border control, freshening up, and storing our luggage and so by 10am we had made it to downtown Brussels.… Continue reading Italian Soiree 2015 Day 1: Brussels & Segrate
