Europe Travel Guide
As far as Europe goes, I visited many capitals since my high school. London, Paris, Madrid, Amsterdam, Lisbon, Rome, Vienna,... I have seen all of them. But don’t forget the cities next to the capitals, like Salzburg, Munich, Nice, Barcelona,... Such lovely places to travel. In the summer or when there are festivals,
or in spring, when the temperatures are comfortable.
Eventhough Belgium is just a small country within Europe, I'm proud to say my country (yes, this is where I live!) has a lot of history, culture and nice food. Who hasn’t heard of our famous beers or delicious chocolates?
France is a country of extremes. It has a lot of contrasts, look at Paris, the busy capital of the country,
rich in culture and art. But on the other hand, if you go more south wards, you can wonder off in nature,
without seeing a single soul.
Paris is probably one of the most famous cities of Europe and can be described in many ways! City of lights, city ‘D’Amour’ or ‘Love’, all names for this fabulous city. I’ve been there already a few times, by train from Brussels, it’s only 1.5 hour. Check out the Paris Travel Guide to see how you can reach the city OR walk with me through Paris and have a look at my personal experience! There is so much sightseeing to do in Paris. Most important are the Eiffel tower, the boat trips on the Seine, The Louvre, Notre Dame, Sacre Coeur... and I can think of a few more! You can see a lot in a few days because of the facilities there are: boat trips, bus tours or on foot like I usually do. You can ask my American friends how they liked Paris on foot! :) 
ITALY It’s been a while since I’ve traveled to Italy, but it was one of my most memorable vacations in Europe! This country has a rich culture, beautiful scenery, lots of history...
