Leuven et le Printemps

Spring has arrived in Brussels! Finally we've been able to enjoy sun and 60 degree weather, something that Belgians go crazy for. Seriously. Everyone is in the park eating ice cream and enjoying this taste of early summer. Since midterms, it's been quite a relaxed time since I've had a break from studying and can continue to explore Brussels. Lots of sleeping in may or may not have been involved this past weekend...but I did manage to squeeze in a trip to Leuven (Louvain in French). This little college town is just about a 20 minute train ride from Brussels, and it consists of cafés, bars, and university buildings. So what did we do then? That's right, try a few Belgian beers and enjoy the sunshine of course! After visiting, I realized I should have reconsidered choosing Ohio for college and just have gone to Leuven haha. A relaxing afternoon of bagels, beer, and sunshine was perfect. Other than typical school life, it's been a pretty chill week here in Brussels. This weekend I'm off to explore Luxembourg and Germany a little bit with my dad who is in town. Can this weather stay please? I promise I would send it to the states if I could!
