Paris to Brussels

Posted by jack On July - 18 - 2010

As wonderful as my experience in Paris was I quickly became tired of being in a city. So a week after I had arrived I packed my things and took to the road. It felt so nice to be out in the countryside again. I took my time riding across the giant uninhabited expanses of agricultural land, enjoying the peaceful solitude and fair weather. I kept to small roads away from cities, and slept in fields and forests.

Indeed I saw many interesting things, but the significance of these events was eclipsed by the wonderful people I met along the way that helped me, going out of their way, giving me food and directions.

In Brussels I stayed with several hosts over the weekend. They were all terrific folk that I feel fortunate to have met. I explored the city and experienced the famous specialties of Belgium. I didn’t want to stay long however because I was eager to get to the community in Leuven I had been looking forward to for the last several months. So after a few days I headed out east to my next place of residence.
