bxlblog, the french-speaking brussels city blog was started up exactly one year ago by eMich. Mich was writing on the dutch Brussels metroblog brusselblogt – and he wondered why, in this city where most people speak french, there was no metroblog in that language.

I don’t remember exactly how i got involved. I’m glad i did. I wasn’t as productive as i could have been in terms of articles, but it allowed me to meet a bunch of rowdy, fun-loving brusseleirs with an unstoppable sense of humor. Still waiting for that post on ‘Streetfucking in Brussels’, by the way, Denis

The blog itself is an eclectic mix of news, events, culture, photos, rants, debates, restaurants, ‘overheard in brussels’ quotes. It’s my primary source of information about what’s going on in Brussels – because it’s the most entertaining.

Happy birthday bxlblog !
