The guide was really very friendly and passionate about the topic. She was able to convey it very well to me, as a non-architect, as well as to my architecture-loving boyfriend. Every trip in Rotterdam should start with a tour with Walk Rotterdam. 100% recommendation!

I really enjoyed learning about the 9 Success Factors from the Blue Zones. Sam showed us ways to incorporate these practices from his native Sardinia as we walked through The Hague. My cousin, was already very knowledgeable about this and I was a novice, but we both had a lovely time. Kitty led us to some special gardens in The Hague and showed us what plants are edible and how they can help your body.

We travelled by train to Amsterdam and only saw one windmill - went past too quickly to get a photo. Zaanse Sch.. is a site where working windmills and other traditional Dutch working buildings have been brought together in one place. Plenty to see and do. Visiting inside of windmill was fascinating. The working clogs museum showing how they were traditionally made and more recent "industrial" processes was also worthwhile.

Thankfully, the battlefield is largely as it appeared in 1815. Rolling hills, farm fields, the wooded and walled Hougoumont (well-restored) and la Haye Saint (not so much). Still, the vibe and the atmosphere is evocative of the crucial Napoleonic struggle that took place here. The museum is excellent. Creative displays, lots of artifacts. The great Lions mound is a bit of a distraction. But it does afford spectacular views of the entire battlefield. Two downsides: the busy road that runs right through the field, north to south, is a little offputting. And Napoleon’s command position was overgrown with shrubs when I was there.
