My arrival to Brussels was fraught with aimless wandering, until like a shining knightress, Carine came to my rescue at a nearby bakery. Upon arrival to the flat, I was welcomed by a personalized sign and the sweetest smile from little Virgile who stood next to it. She'd even placed in my room a couple of chocolate bars and some biscuits.

Although my schedule kept my days long and busy such that I was only in the flat to sleep, it was these extras, in addition to the cozy room, that made an experience for me.

Overall, I had a pleasant stay at Carine's. Should my travels lead me to Belgium in the future, she will surely have my business again.
