Hi,
By way of introduction: I am a vegan animal rights activist from Belgium, did a phD in moral philosophy about animal equality and work at an environmental organisation.

Hello and welcome!

I love Belgium, I have friends there who I used to visit 5-6 times a year do you find it easy to be vegan there?

 

[Stijn Bruers]

You love Belgium? Really? There's nothing to see here...
I think it's rather easy to be vegan here, apart from the country side perhaps. The city of Ghent is beautiful and has lo's of vegan restaurants.

 

[AeryFairy]

Yes, really! Ghent is one of the places my friend and I would go to, and it really is beautiful you also have some really good music festivals but I haven't been able to get over to Belgium in a good few years, not since before I became vegan. Maybe I should go back and give some of those restaurants a try

Welcome!

Welcome to VV!

I've been to Belgium, as a vegan. It wasn't bad at all! At least not Brussels. Some of my wife's ancestors are from there, so we went to see the town they came from.

Quite impressive education and work.

Hi, Stijn, and welcome to VV!

Just to say that I also really like Belgium.

Antwerp, Bruges and Louvain-la-Neuve, where I spent some time when my girlfriend at that time was taking a term at the local university. Bruxelles is a marvellous city, one of my favourite cities in Europe.
