Hi, I’m Mary, your local host in Brussels with a deep love for this vibrant city. I’m passionate about its rich history, unique architecture, and of course, its art scene—especially Flemish painters, Surrealism, and Art Nouveau. You’ll often find me exploring hidden Art Nouveau gems tucked away on the streets or indulging in some delicious Belgian chocolate. I’m always on the lookout for the best local spots. Whether it’s a cozy café or a trendy restaurant, I love sharing those hidden culinary treasures with visitors. I also know Brussels like the back of my hand, especially the neighborhoods of Schaerbeek, Saint-Gilles, Sablon, Centre, and the European Quarter. As a Brussels expert, I’m here to offer a unique perspective on the city's architecture, history, vintage fashion, and local hotspots. I can't wait to show you around!
