Dutch Countryside
After getting my dutch drivers license, I followed the most logical next step – I started driving. To say I am addicted would be an understatement as I ended up driving almost 5000kms in just 5 weekends. Thats more driving I did in a month than I ever did in my entire lifetime.
The beauty that the dutch dutch countryside is, serves to only increase my desire to explore even more. The supply of beautiful places reachable by road in short time, is simply endless. Words do no justice so here are some pictures.
Spijkerboor – one of my favorites where I reached by picking a random spot on the map
Leylestad – The dutch dub it as the most boring place and I find it serene.
Ijdikj near Muiden
Zaanse-Schans
Kinderdijk near Rotterdam
Beaches in Zeeland
Leylestad again at Sunset
Keukenhof
This year I got a chance to see Keukenhof again but from a different and non-touristic perspective when a friend offered to drive me around the fields outside of the touristic keukenhof area. Although the look of the flowers remain the same, the experience was drastically different.
Hamburg
A friend and I took off to Hamburg for christmas and were surprised to be greeted by a beautifully lit & decorated city that was pretty much deserted.
Roaming around the streets in the centre of the city, all drowned in the resounding music of a lone street saxophonist was the most unforgettable experience I brought back from Hamburg
The food was great too.
Whenever the sun was out, the city basked in golden sunlight
and when it left, it lingered around in the sky, just long enough to dazzle the sky in saturated color gradients, for few minutes.
Haagse Bos
A friend and I headed to Den Haag to roam about and take some pictures of the city where we serendipitously stumbled upon the beautiful Haagse Bos, just 5 minute walk away from the Den Haag Centraal. We spent most of our time there and then walked 5km to the beach, reaching just in time for the sunset.
