Snapshots and Snippets is a series that showcases some of my favorite Instagram photos from a specific location.
Now that I’ve been to Belgium twice, I can say that my love for this little country is true. We spent a fairy tale few days in Bruges in the summer of 2013, and then traveled this past Christmas to Brussels, Bruges and Ghent. Going in the height of summer and in the middle of the Christmas season were fairly different experiences, but a few things were constant: the waffles, the fries, the beer, the chocolate, the charm, the friendly people, and the fact that Bruges is a fully discovered tourist spot (and will be crowded even in winter).
I feel that Belgium is often overlooked for nearby biggies Germany, France, and the Netherlands. Now that I’ve traveled in all of those countries (although only to Valkenburg in the Netherlands!) I think that Belgium still holds its own. Every time I visit Bruges, I don’t want to leave, and I after exploring more, I feel that way about the rest of Belgium, too. And not just because of the fries (but seriously, the fries).
