Netherlands

Just finished a great week traveling through different parts of the Netherlands for fun and work.
We started off in Maastricht where we staid with our friends Yuri and Steve and their beautifully renovated home. we learned about the history of Limburg, a small catholic enclave with their own language in the very South of the country, so small that if you start running you are crossing the Belgian border within some 15 minutes. We also saw a lot of very interesting pieces of remodeling of old cloisters, e.g. into a hotel, an archive or even a bookshop.
After stops in Eindhoven, Rotterdam, and Den Haag then some days in beautiful Amsterdam again. Meeting up with AC friends (Eric, Michiel, Mirenchu was there) and making new friends.
