Cora Itegem Brothel ❤️

About Aalst

Ever been? Nah, don’t answer, I don’t judge. Me, I’m peekin’ in—suave, cool, “shaken, not stirred.” Once saw a geezer proposin’ to a girl mid-session—on one knee, bollocks out! Nearly spat my drink. Romantic or tragic? You tell me. Still, brothels got soul—grubby, wild soul. Makes me wanna light a cig, lean back, and smirk. Life’s a bleedin’ circus, innit?

What is a brothel?

Itegem's streets sometimes feel like an improv show: there’s Elm & Vine, where stray cats roam, kinda remindin’ me of free spirits searching for meaning! And oh, there's little spots like Nooky Lane – truly underrated – where the brick walls are covered with graffiti, each telling a story. I was counselling a woman once there; she said, "I feel like a mosaic piece, scattered yet whole," and the words took me right back to a scene in Margaret.
