Hi, have you ever been to the Netherlands? If yes, did you visit Leiden? If not, you should - so write it down for the next time! Leiden is like a small Amsterdam and very friendly. Also the huge painter Rembrandt was born and raised in Leiden (for me his birthplace is next door). Anyways, just a photo I took while doing some grocery shopping.

I will make a post with some sightseeing in Leiden, just give me some time :)

My brother lived in Leiden for a little while for his studies. We visited only once, but it seemed like a great place to see. I'm still planning on going there again when I'm in the area :-)

Awesome! True, Leiden has a lot of expats. So everybody you talk to will speak back to you in english. Yeah, you should :)

We're Dutchies, so I wouldn't really know about that! :-)

hahahahaha!! Sorry!! But it's true, soooo true. ;)

I guess so! It's the same for Groningen I think. You hear people speak English there aswell occassionally :-)

Are you from Groningen? Been there a lot during my study period. Nice party's over there ;-)

Not quite as far up north, but Groningen is about 30 minutes away. I've been there often for shopping and such. Not much of a party goer myself :-)

shopping there must be great as well :-)
