“Brussels is a true international hub. It’s the centre of the European Union and home to all major institutions, which attracts a young and vibrant international community.

People in Brussels are very friendly and welcoming. There’s an open and warm energy, and I was often invited to visit friends’ families for lunches, dinners and birthdays. The people are really good at making you feel at home.

I loved exploring everything Brussels has to offer. There’s a wide variety of restaurants to choose from, and plenty of different experiences to try out. There’s also an incredible art scene, including some fantastic galleries and exhibitions. And it’s easy to fall in love with Brussels’ nature – I truly enjoyed exploring the parks and natural beauty surrounding the city.

Brussels quickly became one of my favourite cities in Europe. It’s welcoming, inspiring and engaging – and has a perfect balance of everything you need to build a successful career.”
