Latest journey to Luxembourg Januar7 2017

To start the new year, I felt it was time to head off, but where to?  I decided on somewhere that has never appealed before but post Brexit seems a more relevant place to consider on my weekend to Luxembourg City, I found desolate modern buildings that really do not make the most of the countries place in Europe, but lovely old buildings that are a testament to how connected this place is to Europe.  It seems to have come under France, Belgium, Spain, Netherlands, etc etc,  and now with its dual languages and  multinational residents (many of the youth hostel staff for example were from Portugal)   it is an interesting melting pot.
