This is my first visit to Travel Fair in the Netherlands. I'm glad that I'm able to make it. Firstly, to see how is the travel fair over here, secondly, to meet other TBers and enjoying the wonderful moments:)I really have a wonderful time in every meet up that I have attended so far.The best part …

Last year we went to the Holliday fair. Very disappointed that it was over. Again another year to wait!! But, time really does fly. Yesterday we went for the 4th time to the holliday fair. This time Patricia from tb arranged a meet up. We went out of bed early (I did, but mandy did not so we had to…

On my last morning, the snow drifted down and made Utrecht look like a fairy tale.  It almost killed me to leave!  Of course, it had its comedy.  Showing Doug round, it got to about a centimetre and a half.  About three minutes after my brother commented how funny it would be if…

This trip to the Vakantiebeurs with fellow Travbuddy's was very different than the ones I have been to before. We walked around in small groups which seemed to change all the time, and sometimes even alone. Some people were there from the start of the fair, others joined in the afternoon or late ev…

This is the 4th year for me and my mother www.travbuddy.com/gejah that we will be at the Travel Fair in Utrecht. It’s   always in the month January. A good way to get some information about your new destination or search for some destinations.   This year it was the 16th January 2…

we'd been planning this trip for a while - ever since I spotted a small sign on the Oudegraacht advertising the restaurant.  Ilka, Eva and I finally managed to find a date we could all make it, and journeyed forth to the Ostrich to see what crocodile tasted like. After a few emails sorting ou…

Time’s ticking away very fast, especially when you’re having a great time. It was my last day in Holland and I was really sad about it. We got up kinda early and I went to the supermarket to buy some croissants for the long bus ride, chocolate for my friends and a new light bulb for Mar…

I could not resist to put some photo's of my newborn nephew here. He is born in Utrecht on 18th March 2009. A beautifull baby, me a proud uncle. O, his name is Ruben Haselager.

My first meetup in 2009 and it was great! So here are some pics of a nice day at Vakantiebeurs, dutch travel fair!

When I got up the morning started good with a nice sunrise :) And on my way to the fair everything went well, bus and train where both on time. I was the first to arrive at the AH to go so I waited for the others to arrive. I'm not sure where my thoughts wandered because suddenly I realised Keiko …

Woke up Monday to a gently blaring elephant (one of the many fun alarms you can choose on your CitizenM touch pad) and took the tram into Centraal for a train ride to Arnhem.  Today’s destination was Hoge Veluwe National Park, somewhat compromised because it was Pentecost today and the K…

We were planning to visit the exhibition "Scorel's Glory" wich is to be seen until June 28 in the Centraal Museum of Utrecht. This museum is housed in a former medieval cloister and it is the oldest municipal museum of the Netherlands. Jan van Scorel (1495-1562) is known for bringing the Ital…
