My last meetup of the year :) Number six organised by Anna, Alex and James.

After a long night of touring, the Heineken Experience and long walks in the city we needed the sleep and a good breakfast.  The hotel included a breakfast buffet for 10 euros that was one of the best I have ever had in Europe.  It featured the usual meats, cheese, bread, juice and fruit …

The area is not an easy place to farm, it takes a great amount of time in travelling to and from the live stock pastures or fields.So, the way how the farmers made a living in the past, that way was slowly vanishing when I was a child. There were a few farmers, and as kids we went with our friends …

  MARVELOUS MAYHEM IN MAASTRICHT   Saturday evening, at the Amsterdam TravBuddy Meetup, I was fortunate to sit at the same table with Sanne (sannekoek) and Raphke (Raphje) at Humphrey's. During our dinner, I asked the gals if they would be willing to show a crazy Am…

Meeting a bunch of travelfriends on 20th of June 2009 :-)

English version can be found below Tot nu toe was ik nog niet bij een TB meetup geweest maar het leek me wel leuk om dat ook eens mee te maken. Toen ik de aankondiging zag van de Meetup in Leiden heb ik me aangemeld en was het wachten op 30 augustus. Gezien het programma was het te hopen dat de zo…

I spended the week end with travbuddys 'bennie' and 'ket.'

Every 2 years, the Dutch Classic Yacht Regatta is held in my town and this morning I went to the harbor, also known as "De Vesting". It was a sunny day, partly cloudy and a good wind, perfect for the yachts. There were already many out on the water, "De Haringvliet". I walked around the area for ab…

Ever since I was a little girl I drew more than anything else in the world. Little people, dreamfigures, plants, bushes...mostly fantasy creatures. I still prefer them :) But when I finished high school I thought art school wasn't a good fit for me, so I decided to study something else. With a long…

Another Saturday has come and it is just beautiful out, nice and sunny.  There is a bit of a chill in the air though.  A friend suggests we hit the pancake house, which I am all for.  We head to a great place in the Jordan.  After a belly filling brunch we head to a bike shop to…

Amsterdam, Netherland for a night, Arizona, Nogales, Mexico, then finally back home in Philadelphia (December 30th - January 9th of 2009)

Saturdaymorning I woke up at 7:30am. My first though was: What can I expect of the Meet Up today? I left my house at 9:30am on my bike to catch my train to Utrecht. I had Nienke on the phone and we would meet each other in Utrecht central station and then heading to Amsterdam. The train w…

We planned to have breakfast together at 10 am. Daniël and me were almost on time downstairs and had our breakfast. The other 3 were a little bit late and didn’t have breakfast. After checking out and putting my stuff in my car, we went to the centre again to meet Brett and Ket for breakfast or …

2 days before we were leaving for Australia, I had my last day at work. During the day I felt a pain in my left upper arm, which only got worse as time went by. From experience, I knew I had an inflammation to my left shoulder joint (I've had it with both shoulders years ago), so I called up my par…
