Learn more about our host country and culture in 7 lectures and one performance. If you really wonder what makes Belgium and Belgians tick, then this series is for you! These seven meetings with eminent and excellent speakers (journalists, professors, artists, etc.) will give you an insight into Belgian politics, history, economy, gastronomy, music, art, etc. We will end this seminar with a stand-up comedian joking about the Belgian way of life and the art of the Belgians. Most of the events are free, but the Gastronomy evening and the closing event cost € 2 each. We also request that you register for some of the lectures.
