Day 1 - First Day in Europe!

First day in Europe

The day started at O’Hare Airport and roughly 10 hours later, we were finally at our destination - Leuven, Belgium. After relaxing a bit in our hotel, we had the opportunity to tour the city of Leuven with our guide, Piet Sercu, a professor of economics at the University. The city of Leuven has great stories behind it and the architecture is beautiful and elaborate. After our first Belgian dinner, we had free time to roam the city and experience the night life. However, after a long day of traveling with little sleep and an early morning ahead, we were all eager to get some shut eye and attempt to avoid being jet lagged. What a great first day!
