I Am Moving Out Of The Netherlands After 3 Years, So I Present A Collection Of My Favorite Photos Of This Place
In just a few days I am moving out of the Netherlands where I have lived for the last three years. During these years, I've met many wonderful people, made countless memories and, obviously, taken hundreds of photos. I had a look at my archive and selected 15 of my favorite pictures.
These three years in the Netherlands were a really intense time in terms of photography. Sometimes photography was taking all of my free time: every spring I was spending dozens of hours taking photos of tulips. I learned to like the Dutch coast and use frequent weather changes to my advantage; I found out that Dutch towns and villages are a perfect playground for cityscape photography.
Below I present a collection of my favorite photos. I will surely come back to them each time I will miss the Netherlands.

I would want the room up in the dormer in the white building in the center. My knees would probably die, but my soul would thrive.

Amsterdam is so different from The Netherlands. The country gets identified with it's overcrowded, over-yuppiefied capital. By all means, go there, but realize that it is probably the least dutch place in the Netherlands you can find.

Why are you moving out when there are so many great things to see! (I don't live in the Netherlands BTW) Also, really cool photos!

Thanks! I am moving out because I am taking a gap year. I want to travel for some time and then - most probably - I will come back to Amsterdam :)
