Before coming here I had just little information about Brussels. One thing I heard a lot about was Place Luxemburg, so called Place Lux. Many people say that it is place where one definitely have to go while visiting Brussels. Place where all eurocrats meet after work having glass of beer or wine in Ralf's bar, enjoying "happy hour".
Finally, on Friday I got in this magical world full of suits, different badges and good-looking people. Roeland invited me to go out with his friends. Meeting in Ralph's. When I was approaching Place Lux, I was totally surprised and amazed. There were so many people standing in front of the Ralf's bar, on the road, sitting on the grass, chatting and meeting others while drinking beer. Roof of the car parking nearby was covered by empty glasses. I just could not believe my eyes. Most of them very well dressed. Due to great weather everybody was outside, inside the bar was totally empty.
I realised that this is probably meeting point of the stagiairs and assistants and other people working in EP. Place where one can meet the others and relax a bit after long working hours.
The next day, on Saturday evening, the place was totally empty and Ralf's bar was closed. Such a great difference in comparison to the previous day.
