Description
Antonio Buscardini has navigated Brussels’ press rooms and expat life for years. Now President of the Press Club Brussels Europe, he knows the city from the inside out.
In this episode of My Brussels, Antonio traces his route through a city that wears many crowns. His Brussels is green, lively and proudly multicultural. A calm pocket of green in Ixelles. After-work rituals at Place du Luxembourg, where hierarchy dissolves around a glass. Cultural celebrations at Bozar. And, inevitably, a Portuguese detour, best enjoyed with a custard tart in hand. Along the way, he reflects on why Brussels feels instantly familiar to so many internationals.
