Comment on Brussels
24 year old Swedish expatriate who has lived for the past four years in the UK and France but who will now go away on a two months graduation trip (actually double graduation trip...;) around the world for a well-needed holiday. My two months trip will take me to countries like Canada, US, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, Cook Islands, French Polynesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, China, Belgium and the UK, and I will have the pleasure of doing it in first class with Star Alliance!!

Enjoy my blog!!
