Wow Helen, that video packed a lot in….Adventures across two countries, lost and (possibly) chased by bears, mechanical failures, a slightly sleazy Frenchman and Yves the eccentric Belgian (getting a Tin Tin vibe from him). Looking forward to the missing railway station.
There are no bears in Belgium, but there are wild boars :-) Hehe :-) Funny, when you said you were in France unexpectedly, I knew you were in Givet. It's such a beautiful place, isn't it :-) Givet is on the route we often take to go to the Ardennes. Fumay, Oignies, Herbeumont... we love it there. I really enjoyed your video, and I'm also looking forward to the abandoned railway station 🙂
@@satur9 strangely I’m less frightened of wild boars! I at least have some experience of them from Australia. That sounds like you might have set an itinerary for me… I’ll look into that. Glad you liked the video. It’s longer than usual but there was a lot going on.
@ I have a Dutch mom, an Italian/French dad and we live in Belgium. I am very European 😅 We live in Tervuren, in Flanders but close to Brussels and Wallonia. I went to school in Waterloo, did my primary school in French and I am now studying in the American high school of Tervuren. Next year I am going to study for 3 months in Germany. I am 15y. I really love this country even if our national sports is complaining 😅
Adventures and adventurous then a bit of posh !! Love it !!

We have a few wolves too, and sometimes a territorial deer who doesn't like you.
@ oh great!!! Glad I didn’t know that then
Ahhh the Michelin star restaurant from muddy and bedraggled. Best story ever
@@felicitywaterford7209 such a brilliant experience.
What about that wine cellar 😮
@@edengrasso it was pretty awesome! Did you note the cigars?
@@helenwheels4444 I did!
@@helenwheels4444 I did!
Are there bears in Belgium?😂
@@edengrasso one of my lovely viewers commented that there are no bears but there are wild boars. But I feel more comfortable with that
Only teddybears.
@ awwww
Not many people can say they were lost in a forest and get treated like royalty in a Michelin star restaurant after. Belgians are adorable people
@@littleprincess8526 it was a really unusual day! I have loved Belgium and its people. Are you from Belgium?

@@littleprincess8526 Wow! That is very European! Germany was also fabulous. I’ll have a video on my adventures there soon. I hope you like it there.
