Belgian phonebook
 
We will be in Belgium in March. I would like to try to find an old university friend there. Are physical phonebooks available or does one have to search online ? Also, are cell numbers available online ? Thanks.

Thanks, Cowboy. While understandable, it's too bad people aren't listed. Not everyone, myself included, uses FB. I looked her up in Antwerp and found one that is possible. Think I'll try that number tomorrow morning. Her family were prominent industrialists from Kortrijk so she should be fairly easy to find but ...

I have a physical phonebook of Antwerp. If you wish, I can look up your friend. You can email me at mhc2001be at yahoo.com

Does she live in Antwerp? I think that if she is not listed in the online phonebook, she will not be listed in the paper book either.
