In ‘Urban Snaps’ section we share photos and comments from our big community of locals, expats and tourists who all have something special to say about the city. Tommaso Spanevello is a public affairs professional from North-East of Italy (Venetian) but living in Brussels during last three and a half years. This is how he reacted on the current heatwave in the city while he was relaxing on one of Brussels’ rooftop terraces 🙂
Brussels under a heatwave is just absurd. It does not make any sense, does it.
Screwball illogical , nonsensical freaky.
It’s un poule avec les dents, it’s your grandma adding you on Snapchat; it’s Pepe Mujica in Ferrari; a bar in Belgium accepting credit cards; a gay pride in the streets of Teheran; a grammy award to Carla Bruni.
It’s also a rooftop’s fancy sunset meltdown, realizing that Life ain’t probably too bad after all, and I just want more.
I want more rooftops. I want more sunsets. I want more Mondays even. I want more heatwaves.
God bless Brussels’s heatwaves.
