Méabh's Brussels

Euronews chief anchor Méabh McMahon has called Brussels home for the past sixteen years. In this first episode of My Brussels, she takes us to her favourite spots. From the leafy streets of Schaerbeek to the elegant corners around Royal Park. As a busy mom of two, Méabh knows where tired parents can unwind. And a friendly warning to those living on Brussels’ east side: she’ll definitely encourage you to cross the canal by bike. And yes, it’s worth it. Along the way, she also reveals where to celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day like a true Irish local in the European capital.
