Easter in Milan

This year, Mathijs and I spent the Easter weekend in Milan. We left straight after work on Thursday evening, where our flight departed with quite a delay. We arrived around midnight at our accommodation (Best Hostel Milano B&B) – a nice, clean hotel which was quite cheap (for Milan).

Exploring Antwerp & trying to do gymnastics

My first trip from Amsterdam brought me to Belgium in January, to Antwerp and Sint-Niklaas to be precise.

Noord-Holland again! Haarlem & Volendam

A short while ago, I spent another weekend in Noord-Holland. As always, I wanted to see a little bit of the country, together with Mathijs.

On our first day we went to Haarlem for a couple of hours – a beautiful town approximately at the same height as Amsterdam in the East of Noord-Holland.
