An Open Invitation


In an effort to accomplish all of my goals (see my previous blog entry), I have devised this open invitation for visitors. Mom is coming tomorrow and I am sure she will be able to give a review of our fine establishment. Note, if you are a stranger and you are reading my blog, this does not apply to you. You are not invited to my house and we are not a real hostel.
Information on the Biasi Hostel:
Aside from 2 weeks at Christmas and 2 weeks in April, we are open for business at our hostel. We can host you with fine accommodations of 7 bedrooms and a free breakfast. We offer a shuttle service to and from all airports and train stations. Beware of our driver as he is a little careless and has been known to weave and speed in traffic. Your room also comes with laundry service and a complimentary tour guide. We have 5 guides on staff with each one being skilled in their own area of expertise. Our guides boast the following qualifications:

Guide #1 - Experienced in all aspects of beer drinking and beer production. Wine is also of high interest and can take you on a tour of all bars and wineries.
Guide #2 - Knows every single shopping mall, outlet, open market and antique (troc) store in the greater Brussels area. Also skilled in Chocolate buying and eating.
Guide #3 - Is skilled in providing internet capability at every single establishment in Brussels. Also understands where a visitor can obtain the most "bars" on any cellular phone. If you have lost your phone, want to upgrade your phone or need lessons on texting lingo, this guide is for you.
Guides #4 and #5 - Although our youngest on staff, they have more knowledge than most. Reading French menus are their specialty. "What not to eat" is their latest publication with Escargot, mussels and tongue(that's right!) being top on the list. They can also explain the value of British TV and cross country running in the forest.

To all our friends and family, we would welcome your company. Please consider visiting us!

  2. I'll have to make sure my friends don't see your blog or they might end up over at your house instead of mine!

  3. Hi Julie!
    I am a friend of Deitra Dunne. We visited Belgium last year and loved the main square. We didn't get to see it covered in flowers though! We love looking at all of your pictures - it brings back wonderful memories.

    Look for the Royal Gardens (just north of Brussels, in Leuken I think) to be open for 2 weeks in late April or early May. It's the only time of the year it's open to the public.
