Brussels
MEET THE LOCALS
Why pay for a guide if you can have a good one for free? Many locals would love to take you around town as a free guide and some even offer a free bed.
Don't worry, the hospitality networks don't (only) consist of some old hippies or sex-obsessed forty-year-olds, but just regular people who love to show the best sides of city life. It could be a great way to see things your tourist guide would never show.
