French, English, Spanish, Italian, Bulgarian…One of the things I have always loved about Brussels is its multilingualism. Wherever you are in the city, languages reach you with their melody and mix in a beautiful polyphony. The eternal music of Brussels, our contemporary Babylon. The main difference however is that, hey, we do speak foreign languages … Continue reading
“I come from Piura, a town that used to be small in the north coast of Peru. A very warm and sunny place in the middle of the desert, where seasons go almost unnoticed and the days have the same length all year around. I went to a Jesuits school and then studied applied economic … Continue reading
I meet a writer friend at Café Belga on Wednesday night. It is around 10 pm but the café is busy. Taking advantage of the “March summer”, as some of the quickest marketing professionals called their latest parties, many people are sitting outside.

I wanted to do something special on the first day of the year. Going through the, non-surprisingly, very limited list of options, I opted for Ice Magic. Some 20 artist-sculptors from across the globe have depicted famous comic strips’ characters. To be honest, I have never been into comic strips so for me it was … Continue reading
I found it by pure chance. As I walked out of the crowded streets around Grand Place and made my way towards Sainte-Catherine square, I suddenly was at a different place. Deserted. Quite. Private. A short street with silver balls hanging over it and spreading around their metallic shine. There was both intimacy and wonder … Continue reading
Halloween night coincide with the first Festival des Lumieres Bruxelles (Lights Festival Brussels) this year. The latter was about to last for four nights, so I decided to focus on the Halloween parties first. The one which attracted my attention was “Années Folles” on the theme The Haunted Great Gatsby. It was taking place at … Continue reading
In the fairy tales the hero jumps on a black ram who would take him to the Underland. There he experiences different challenges or finds magical objects which would then help him to go back to the Upperland (again on the back of a ram but this time, for a change, a white one), triumphs … Continue reading
