REVIEWING EUROPEAN CITIES - PARIS 🇫🇷

Impressions from recent visit to Paris and the ways in which the city is and is not changing in the 2020’s 🧵

This is not a complaining thread, more just to describe Paris as it is today and the extent to which Paris is or is not changing. ‘TLDR’ - A lot of what is said about the scale of change in France is true but Paris is such a great city it can still fairly easily accommodate it

Paris really is ball-achingly beautiful. Hurts to say it if you are British but you sometimes get a sort of seething Antonio Salieri jealousy when you walk around it because it is so often such an effortlessly attractive city. Severe Paris syndrome is invariably a bit contrived

REVIEWING EUROPEAN CITIES - BUCHAREST 🇷🇴

Impressions from recent visit to Bucharest and the ways in which the city is and is not changing in the 2020’s 🧵

This is not a complaining thread, more just to describe Bucharest as it is today and the extent to which Bucharest is or is not changing. ‘TLDR’ - Bucharest feels comparatively poorer vs other EU capitals but seems to be improving. Relatedly, recently migrants started arriving

In contrast to some other Eastern Europe cities like Warsaw or even Belgrade Bucharest still ‘feels’ a little developing. It is much richer than it used to be but there is maybe a little further to go on that front yet. That said it is not a bad city, it is often quite lively

REVIEWING EUROPEAN CITIES - BRUSSELS 🇧🇪

Impressions from recent visit to Brussels and the ways in which the city is and is not changing in the 2020’s 🧵

This is not a complaining thread, more just to describe Brussels as it is today and the extent to which Brussels is or is not changing. ‘TLDR’ - Brussels is possibly the worst capital in Europe in terms of demographic change, migration has run wild and the city has transformed

Had not been to Brussels for maybe a decade and had fuzzy memories of it being… ‘bougie’ if dull, visiting recently - rare I am genuinely shocked by the pace of change nowadays but I was pretty shocked. It’s more Yookay than the Yookay if that is even possible. Has changed a lot

VISITING MOLENBEEK, BRUSSELS 🇧🇪🇪🇺

Molenbeek is one of the most infamous municipalities in Europe - right at the edge of the Belgian and European Union capital and known both for its very large migrant community and for producing a large number of Jihadis. I went on a tour 🧵

Molenbeek is the largest migrant enclave in Brussels and one of maybe most known on the European continent given its location in the EU capital. Infamously it has been the home of many Islamists; eg the 2004 Madrid Bombers, Paris 2015 terrorists and Brussels 2017 Station Bomber

Just to note, Brussels today is probably the most ‘diverse’ capital in Europe - even more so than London or Paris. It really is transformed now so when you do go to the most ‘diverse’ neighbourhood of already the most ‘diverse’ city the jump is not as sudden as you might expect

REVIEWING EUROPEAN CITIES - COPENHAGEN 🇩🇰

Impressions from recent visit to Copenhagen and the ways in which the city is and is not changing in the 2020’s 🧵

This is not a complaining thread, more just to describe Copenhagen as it is today and the extent to which Copenhagen is or is not changing. ‘TLDR’ - Copenhagen’s reputation as about as Basically Fine as you can get is well-deserved but it is too soon to say it is out of the woods

To get straight to the point, Copenhagen is a very nice city. There are certain parts of the city that in the summer sun look so nice that it can actually be annoying - in the sense of “why don’t we have this elsewhere?” A high human capital city too, hard to beat on that front
