- Ice. Definitely #1. I miss ice in my drink so bad.
- Macaroni and cheese. Haven't seen it yet. I'm craving it. The kind with Spiderman shapes. Those taste the best.
- Hearty breakfasts. Breakfasts in Belgium (or as far as I've experience) are fruit, bread with chocolate spread, or cereal. Now, I love chocolate spread, and I love cereal, but I could kill for a large ham, bacon, and spinach omelette. Now, before you ask, no, waffles are not a choice for breakfast. They're not breakfast food at all in Belgium. They're more of a dessert. I haven't gotten my first Belgian waffle yet, I'm waiting until I go to the Grand Place for a very particular store, but waffles are very much dessert. They come with whipped cream, chocolate, strawberries, sugar, cream, everything.
- Important signs in English. I know French decently, but a lot of times, there are words I don't know and I end up standing in the middle of the road, trying to figure out which way to go.
- Less aggressive drivers. The driving here: terrifying. Every time I cross a road, I think I'm going to die. There's very little street lights in Brussels, and people just sorta go through intersections on their own and have many near-misses and horns blown. There's pedestrian walk signs, but drivers don't stop for them unless they're about to hit a person. Drivers also swerve in and out of lanes, and sometimes drive on the curb or sidewalk to get past someone slower than them.
- You.
