A new month Another week has passed and here we are starting a fresh month. Temperatures have gone from – 30C to +10C and back to the minuses. We’ve had a few long days at work, a visit to the museum, a party and some great food. What did you get up to this week?
Sea Legs and Beer in the XXX City
Four metres below sea level Walking by moored boats at many of the cities we’ve visited always makes me wonder what it would be like to live, floating in the middle of an urban environment. Places like Vancouver or Seattle embrace the life but Amsterdam, sitting on average 4 m below sea level with 333 […]
365 Project – week 4
A small window into my life I received a nice email from a friend this week, she said that she was enjoying seeing my 365 project pictures, she described it as a small window into my life. That’s nice but it’s what she wrote afterwards that stayed with me. She wrote that doing a project […]
365 Project – week 3

You Ate 1098 Meals in 2012
If you eat 3 meals a day, that means you ate 1098 meals in 2012. How many of those meals were memorable? Certainly not 1098, how about 500? 100? Could you name a dozen? Looking through photos helped us remember some of our most memorable meals (and snacks) of 2012. You won’t find anything resembling […]
Amsterdam: 48 Hour City Card
City cards We’ve hummed and hawed about city cards in the past. Either because we didn’t feel they gave us enough time to enjoy the sights that were offered but mostly because the sights offered weren’t what we wanted to see. Then we tried the iamsterdam card and our views changed. With 50 museums and […]
