About Me

I live in Utrecht, half an hour drive or ride with train from Amsterdam. Utrecht is sometimes called "The small Amsterdam". I think it should be the other way around: "Amsterdam is the big Utrecht"!
Utrecht is less crowded with tourists but the canals and streets are really lovely and pittoresques. I live right in the middle of the centre, so very easy to explore the city by foot. The train station is a 15 min walk away. Or you can take a bus, they stop every minute in front of the door. Or, if you dare, you can take my bike and join the other thousands of bikers in this city!
