I'm doing an internship at an NGO and re-learning French.

Does the Brussels metro stay open late, do you know?

Linking there is forbidden, the MIVB (metro company) says, but this is the schedule for the Petillon station.

In case it doesn't work: about 5AM to about midnight. It's on line 1A, which is one of the biggest lines in Brussels.

(Annoyingly, that MIVB site is only in French and Dutch.)

Ooh, thank you very much. Well, seeing as I don't know the address of where I'll be working or studying yet, it seems quite safe to just find somewhere by a metro station.

I am so excited!

If you're going to stay near the Petillon metro station: this is the artwork there: "Que la mer épargne" by Jules Lismonde (1976).

(I don't know much about Brussels, to be honest. I can find the Ancienne Belgique by car, but one roadblock and I'm lost. So I'm afraid I can't help you with the region around Etterbeek.) (I'll gladly google stuff for you, so ask away anyway)

I never found any of this stuff when I was googling, thanks.

This thread makes me want to go to Belgium right now.
