[Please confirm if possible if you plan or not to come]
Rêver un impossible rêve
Porter le chagrin des départs
Brûler d'une possible fièvre
Partir où personne ne part
Aimer jusqu'à la déchirure
Aimer, même trop, même mal,
Tenter, sans force et sans armure,
D'atteindre l'inaccessible étoile
JACQUES BREL, "La quête"[1][2][3][4]
Dear all,
As I am turning the page in my "quest for the unreachable star :) " I
would be very honored if you could join me in a last drink together.
There will be people from different groups where I have been involved in
these last years.
When: Wednesday the 7th of June from 19:30 onwards
Where: Kultuurkaffee in the VUB (on the side of Boulevard du
Triomphe, after a red light zebra crossing next to
Colruyt)
Below you have some indications to arrive to the place and the links to
Jacques Brel song information.
Hope to see you as many as possible,
Miguel
------------ Instructions to go to VUB/KultuurKaffee -------------------
How to get there by METRO
-------------------------
1. Take the line 1A (probably direction Herman Debroux) and get out at
station "Petillon" (note that line 1B does not go there).
2. Follow the exit with VUB sign that goes to
"Av des volontaires / vrijwilligerslaan"
3. Go to your right and walk a few blocks (you should pass
behind Etterbeek military arsenal).
4. You will see a first pink building with VUB sign there. It is just
a copy store, go still further (you are almost in the campus but not
there yet).
5. You should arrive to the Bdv du Triomphe and cross it with the
red light zebra crossing.
6. Go to the leftmost part of the parking and you will see the
Kultuurkaffee.
How to get there by CAR
-----------------------
The VUB together with the ULB-La Plaine campus form a "U" shape
surface perpendicular to Blvd General Jacques pointing towards
Namur exit.
1. Take Bvld General Jacques and leave it following the Ring-E411-Namur
indications. You are now in one of the U sides either Bd de la
Plaine on "Bois de la Cambre side" or Bd de Triomphe on "Montgomery
side".
2. Enter in any entry of the VUB. Subterranean parkings are
interconnected and the campus is not that big anyway. I cannot help
you more since I used any of those parkings myself.
3. The Kultuur Caffee is on the Blvd de Triomphe side after the red
light zebra crossing next to the Colryiut supermarket.
How to get there by Tram 23-90 (from Montgomery or Bois de la Cambre)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. The VUB is easily spotted as a small green wood area between the
Etterbeek arsenal and the Blvd de Triomphe/Av de la Couronne
crossing.
2. You will have to walk from General Jacques to the middle of the U on
Blvd de Triomphe side.
How to get there with SNCB Line 26 (future RER in Brussels)
-----------------------------------------------------------
A. If the train stops in Delta, take the metro 1A direction center (Roi
Baudoin), get off at Petillon and follow the metro indications.
B. If the train stops at Etterbeek station get out there and you will
be at General Jacques next to the VUB on the opossite corner of the
KultuurKaffee. You are in the same case as with the Trams.

[3] Translation for non-French speakers (aided by Babel fish)
To dream an impossible dream
To bear the sorrow of the departures
To burn of a possible fever
To depart towards where nobody goes
To love until tearing apart
To love even too much, even [with] pain
To attempt, without force and armour,
to reach the inaccessible star
Jacques Brel, "The Quest"
[4] Original song of "Man of La Mancha" musical that Jacques Brel
adapted.
