Despite its small size, Belgium has a lot to offer with many pretty cities and towns that are within a few minutes or hours by train or car from its capital. If you are in Brussels and want to explore more of Belgium, it is very easy to go on a day trip to one…
Train travel has always been one of my favourite way to travel: it takes obviously longer than planes, but it is less stressful, you can roam around freely in the compartment and it is much more comfortable. Also, you get to see beautiful landscapes passing by as you get to your destination.
