Stefka led a wonderful tour through a small town while on her bicycle. Windmills, canals, dykes - all of the special features in a small town setting. Stefka clearly loves the town and is prepared to answer questions with knowledge and gentle good humour. This is our second tour with Stefka and it was a treat!

Three of us gathered in Chef Eliane’s kitchen for a cooking lesson- it was way more than that. While learning to make a vegetarian curry from scratch we learned how to use our utensils properly and how to lay out our ingredients ahead of time. Dessert was lemon meringue pie (our request), also from scratch- after cooking we got to share our dishes accompanied by a selection of Dutch wines. This was a super learning experience as well as a warm and cozy gathering in celebration of our accomplishments- Chef Eliane, thank you!
