THE NETHERLANDS IN PICTURES

I get it! You have been planning a trip to the Netherlands but you are still unsure on what to see and do. The trouble is, Holland is such a stunning country that there is so much to explore! From stunning architecture in Rotterdam to those gorgeous colorful tulip fields in the countryside or the classics canals in Amsterdam.  So much diversity in such a tiny country. However, if you plan your trip right, then you can see a lot in just a couple of days. Besides, even the briefest trip to this country is pretty magical…

In today’s posts, I will show you some of the best of what the country has to offer. If you need a country guide then I have written an extensive guide to the Netherlands. I have also written an individual city guide for Rotterdam and (Of course) Amsterdam.

Check out some amazing pictures below…

TWO CREEK WALKING TRAIL

TWO CREEK WALKING TRAIL

Just before summer hits and the weather is too hot to do anything but sit at the beach and swim in the ocean, I wanted to do a quick few more walks. After finally finishing the Spit Bridge to Manly Walk a few weeks ago (plus writing about it in detail) I wanted to do something a little different this time and not do a coastal walk.

I opted for a walk with a bit more shade and a different scenery then Australia’s coast, I know, I am such a spoiled brat.

I did some Google searching and found the Two Creeks Walk located an easy bus trip away.  It offers (according to Google) post-war cobbled tracks and stonework, Coachwood forests, sweeping water vistas, and vegetation communities ranging from moist gullies to Sydney sandstone gully bushland.

I think that sounds pretty spiffy and decided to bind on my walking shoes and wander this 7.5-kilometer-long track.

BONDI TO BASIC – MY INSTAGRAM

BONDI TO BASIC – MY INSTAGRAM

I have recently started an Instagram account for this blog. Previously I used my personal Insta account, but I always felt a bit awkward posting too many pictures on there. I also had not told (still haven’t) to a lot of people that I started a blog. I guess I still feel a tad awkward about it, but that is a whole other story for another day.

So today’s post is going to be a little bit different then what I normally post, well not a little but a lot. You know that I normally spend hours researching and writing posts, but today I got a little frustrated with Instagram and I thought I would write you a quick post on how amazing (if I say so myself) my Instagram account is and why I think you should follow me ASAP. Unless you are a bot… like  90% of the accounts are on Insta nowadays.  So upsetting because it used to be such a cool site.
