After Food, lets move to drink...
So, we ate a lot in our last post:
Now coming on to the next pillar, lets talk about Drinks. Now all of you who think that I went only for drinks in Europe, please consider this " I Do not Drink any Alcohol". So just do not interpret Drinks as only Alcohol.But yes this blog is on famous drinks that you should never miss while travelling in Europe.
First let my introduce to 3 drinks that should not be missed in Europe:
1. Bourgogne Wine and famous Wine festivals in the region. Now as an nondrinker, I can not give you the real feeling but from my friends experiences I can say that you would love these Red Wines from the city of Mustard.
Like they say " Tres Bien" . This is classic or ahhhhaa fantastic. Guys, if you want to impress your date bring a bottle of Red Wine from here.
2. Local Beer in Brussels: I have always heard of Germany known for beer but friends, if you are in Brussels then do try the local beer brewed by some monks in the city. It is really worth trying.
3. Sangria: A glass of sangria and volleyball with hot chicks on the Barcelona beach is enough for you to spend a weekend or even week in my favorite destination of Europe.
Now do BamJam, BamJam. All those dirty minds here thinking something please do not over think. I am not talking about Bam Bam here but BamJam is one of the finest Bar in the City of Dijon. So be prepared to party like animals in your holidays.
Each day should be a different party day for you. Do google search and find the best places to drink in the City. If you do good job you could find some best and cheap places to enjoy and get drunk and get ****. I had my best evenings with my super cool friends in different Places. We partied like every other nights and in the end the Bar and Clubs knew us. We tried all Bar and clubs in Dijon like BamJam, Chat Noir, Salsa Pelpe and Hit Club.
Literally I had fun there, all my friend reading this would know what I am talking about :)
If you are in France and do not go to any of the many Wine Festivals then you are a real ***. I had an opportunity to go to this small but equally wonderful Wine trip to a small village called Corgoloin near Beaune City (also known ass Wine Capital of France). This festival is held during last weekend of January and you can taste different kind of Wines from different regions of France at single place in just 15 euros (Confirm the latest Price) and also French Cheese direct from Farms.
So if Clubs and Bar only place to drink?
No, a big No. Well we partied every 2 night in the Clubs and on other nights we partied in our Dormitory. Well of you think dormitories are only for study then you are wrong there. Infact my most memorable incident happened in my Dormitory after we were drunk.
Here it is:
I bought some Indian sweets and invited others for Indian Night at my place. We agreed to watch an Indian Movie and eat and drink together. As an India it was my responsibility to promote Bollywood of whom, We are really proud of. So we decided to see a Rom-Com movie and as usual it had dance, romance (not behind the tree my friend), and blah blah. We had pretty fun till all were drunk and suddenly we heard fire alarm. As we cam out to evacuate we saw one of my friend actually doing it. It was more funny when other friend came with the CO2 cylinder to stop fire. This was all slapstick situation as other people started gathering out. We just ran away from the building and acted as even we were shocked. It took some time for the management to clear building was safe and people were already cursing the unknown people for such act as it was 3 AM in Morning and it was chilly outside.
P.S: Please do not try this at your building and even if you do, do not be inspired from us :P

I still poke this friend of mine and talk about the incidence and she feels sorry for it :) Haha this inspired my other friend to repeat same again in my building just 2 days before I left for India.

It helps you enjoy and it keeps you comfortable in the chilly winters. So drink party enjoy in your student Erasmus. It comes once in your life.
