Andrew's Blog from BRUSSELS!

First of all, please allow me to apologise for the lack of updates. It has been a pretty hectic time for me lately because since handing in my dissertation on Friday (11th), I've been to Brussels, Sheffield and back home, then back to London and now I have arrived in Brussels.

For those who may not have learnt yet, I have been granted a work placement at the European Parliament from October 1st for five months in the capacity of a journalist.

Naturally, this is a phenomenal opportunity for me and is essentially tailor-made to my academic career. Therefore I am very excited (albeit a little nervous too obviously) about starting on Thursday.

I have arrived in my new home which as you can see from the photos here (click to open) is really nice, spacious, and somewhat luxurious! The bed will take some getting used to as it is accessible only from a staircase that has no handrail and you have to 'walk' down it because of the corregated steps.

Now while this place has a lot included with it (took about an hour to go through the six-page inventory), it did not come with any food, and so I need to head out now and find some tea!

Ciao for now!
