Conveuropean

Some weeks ago I was showing my brother the map on this photoblog containing the different cities I had visited during the years I have been living in Europe and he asked me about Amsterdam. I haven't noticed but I realized I haven't published any picture yet from the famous Dutch capital and since I recently had a connecting flight passing through schiphol I thought that was a good opportunity to take a good picture for conveuropean. One of most fascinating parts of Amsterdam are its canal system, conceived as part of the city planning in the 17th century. In this picture you can observe one of this canals at night, with the church of St. Nicholas in the background.

Last fall I went to visit my dear friend J. in the Netherlands. This time we took the train a visited the nice city of Utrecht. We walked around the canals, grab some cup of coffee and enjoyed a lovely sunny day grabbing a beer in one of the terraces.

Last weekend I went to the Netherlands for the second time in my life to visit my dear friend J. who works in the Hague. Even if the weather was not great I had a really good time chatting about so different topics. On Sunday since it was a rainy day we went to the Mauritshuis Museum where is the famous painting "Girl with a Pearl Earring". On my way back yesterday I did a stopover of 2 hours in Amsterdam. In conclusion I enjoyed very much this weekend :).
