Getting settled in Brussels

First of all, we would like to wish everybody a Merry Winter Solstice and a Happy New Year! Yes, we're late. But then, so were you!

Anyway, back to the narrative of our suddenly less exciting lives. After a fun time with my family in the US, we have finally returned to Brussels to settle in for a while. Our trip to get here was prolonged by some of the biggest snow storms in Europe in 20 or 30 years, and we ended up spending a couple of nights in Dublin. Upon arriving in Brussels, we were pretty shocked by the unprecedented (in our lifetimes) sight of a foot and half of snow!

We have been here for about two weeks now, during which time we enjoyed the holidays with Venla's family and our friends, which was quite relaxing.  It is now on to the the double imperative of settling into a new city: finding work and finding a place to live.
