BELGITUDE

First of all: welcome to our little country. Second of all: my condolences to your vitamin D levels; it’s unlikely that you’ll see the sun again before you leave. You may have a few questions, such as ‘why am I here?’ and ‘what can I do around here?’ I can’t really answer those for you, but both answers likely involve beer. Other questions you may have are about what Belgium even is and why it exists. What binds a country where both halves can’t understand each other without Google Translate?

SYMPHONIC CITY SOUNDS

SCS does not stand for Sleepless College Students or Sociable Cantus Squad, it stands for Symphonic City Sounds. A symphonic orchestra for students and alumni, doesn’t that sound fun? dwars has even better news: new musicians are welcome. President Celine Meylemans and clarinettist Jeroen Standaert tell us more.
