Friyaaaaay!! Well, it’s been a long week. A very long week. It’s been rushed and it’s been full of to do’s so I am looking forward to a little break aka the weekend. You know how they say that you should get away from the city for a break? Well I have always had my own ways of doing things, so what do I do for a break? I escape to a bigger city. I am looking forward to a weekend of city rush, just because it would not be me rushing, I would be nicely walking around, enjoying a bit of early Christmas feeling at the Christmas markets and hopefully get to see a bit more of this big city – Bristol, as I have only seen snippets so far. I’ve shot this outfit last time I was in Bristol at Cabot Circus. It’s the kind of outfit one would wear at the weekend – laid back with the final touch being a big, cozy coat. That I got as a bargain at a Romanian seasonal fair, by the way – scooore! However, there is one element I think about when I dress in a sweatshirt or hoodie – and lately I do it quite a lot, because it’s cozy and warm and you know – winter is coming. That is make up or accesories, or in this case both, as it was a city outfit.

As promised, my last post about my Erasmus talks about stuff to do in Leuven. If there is something that I liked about the city it’s that, even if small, there was always something to do, and places to see, and well, you could never get bored. First and foremost, there’s the Oude Market – as many bars as you can count, but you will probably lose your counting abilities if you try them all at once. However, together they get the title of “Longest Bar in Europe”, so that’ something you have to try. They also take huge pride in their beers, so if you are a beer lover, you shall visit their Stella Artois factory that is also in Leuven. Giving that I am a lady and I am not really a fan of beers, I usually seek for flavoured beers instead, and so I came to find the Kriek, and ever since I found it, was the only type of beer that I chose whenever there was no wine. It has a really nice cherry flavour, so if you are into that, I would recommend you to try it. If not, I am sure you will find something that you like, there are hundreds… But let’s make this clear, beer is not the first thing that I looked for when I was in Leuven, it was chocolate…or waffles? Knowing myself, I think both. For chocolate, there is a cute, little Leonidas on the main street into the center that gives you the chance to pick & mix pralines, and while you are walking through the city,...
