Mari Paal Brothel ❤️❤️❤️

About Antwerp

Oi mate, gather ‘round! Brothel, yeah? Been thinkin’ bout it—grand ol’ mess, ain’t it? Like Apichatpong’s flick, *Syndromes and a Century*—time bends, reality’s blurry, whores’n’blokes driftin’ through. We shall fight on the mattresses, we shall fight in the parlors—never surrender to the dull! Brothels got soul, see? Not just bangin’—history’s in ‘em. Take Amsterdam’s red lights—didja know them girls pay taxes? Straight up legit, blows my mind! Used to be church-run, too—middle ages, priests pimpin’. Wild, eh?

Taking pictures with my old brothel pal, so enjoy the infamous Saloon leg we used to do. I miss it at times but I wouldn't go back. #GTS.

Got a few secrets too – like the hidden mural in a back alley near Sint Jorisstraat. No one knows it exists ‘cept the locals. I once had a session outside there – crazy counselling under wild street art, making my heart race with purpose. But then, sometimes, I get so f'd up on the raw energy and snark of the place, I laugh out loud for no reason… or maybe a bit too much.
