My humble tips for those who want affirmation.
 
(or ...what Iearned today)
Skip Greece.
Don't bother walking
Wear whatever you want.
Wine is evil as is smoking.
Only rich old diplomats live in Paris.
Popcorn and gardening gloves are good presents.
Danish toasters are a good conversation piece.
Brides in Denmark wear red (unless they own a hawaiian shirt)
Trenitalia is very complicated

Thanks OP - you made me laugh 8-)

I like your attitude!

What I loved was the sausage thread, where the well-informed OP just wanted info on where she could find a "Rostbratwurst" in the U.S.
She got great advice convincing her/him that what he/she had was not a flame grilled Bratwurst but rather a cooked Weisswurst. Amazing :-)

There is another one where the OP is advised to go to one of the best wine growing regions in Germany (Wiesbaden) to enjoy the beer.

Have a great day in Brussels!

Can we add that no worldwide announcements are necessary when:

You buy tickets to anywhere

You actually are somewhere

You leave in 980,345 days and 28 minutes from now

You are overwhelmend
