With my sugar-kLumpel we left our christian hostel in the middle of the sin-district after breakfast and headed off for see the canal-town;)We went first to see this "I AM STERDAM" sign.

I had breakfast again and left at 10 o’clock for the Vondelpark. It was less then a 5 minute walk. I took a lot of pictures there while walking around the park and headed back to the station. I remembered that Johan told me that there is also a flower market, which was closed last night, so I saw…

Wim (my husband) and I had bought a new digital camera and wanted to try it out.

So, I've decided to take the plunge: my first Meet Up! And it's a home game, so if I don't like it,Í'll be home soon....But I loved it! It was so nice to meet some of the people I talked to here and to meet new people. My jaws are still hurting from all the laughs I had. We started with a short t…

This site is all about sharing travel tips and stories, pictures and reviews. Most of all this site is about meeting kindred spirits, if possible in person :) On June 2 2009, I showed TravBuddy Vance and his wife Kim around in my hometown The Hague. Read all about it and see the photos.

The last day was pretty uneventful...we had a last breakfast in the hotel, went to the train station to get a ticket for a train to the airport, then went out for some very quick souvenir shopping.  Then it was time to say goodbye to Wendy and head home.  What an awesome trip and what won…

I didn't knew what to expect since it was my first meet-up but it's been a great experience! I'm already looking forward to the next one! Oh yeah, this blog can be concidered as mine and Sylvie's as she didn't used her own camera because her pics weren't looking clear enough. So she decided to use my camera as well :)

As promised to another TravBuddy, here's a photoblog of some Dutch beaches. When one thinks of the word 'Beach', quite often images of warm summerdays come to mind. However, I think a beach is beautiful year round. Therefore I will make pictures throughout the seasons and post them here. All of the…
