Since we are originally from the Netherlands (lived there until 2008), we regularly go back to visit family and friends. Being close to the German and Belgian borders, it's usually a combination of countries that we visit. Besides that we also still love our favourite European destination in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wobben.org\/en\/category\/other-destinations\/Greece\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Greece<\/a>: Crete!<\/b>\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https:\/\/www.wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/180903_01samaria.jpg\" alt=\"Nico and Marlies on Crete in 2018\" \/>\r\n\r\nBeing away from the old countries' history and culture, we do appreciate that more now. We make sure we visit old towns like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wobben.org\/en\/tag\/leiden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Leiden<\/a> in the Netherlands (a mini-Amsterdam with its canals) where my nephew Martijn lives.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https:\/\/www.wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/170512_50_leiden.jpg\" alt=\"One of the canals in Leiden in 2017\" \/>\r\n<h3 class=\"h3post\">Vacation Feeling<\/h3>\r\nIn Germany we quickly get a vacation feeling, esp. in the Eifel region like here in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wobben.org\/en\/tag\/monschau\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Monschau<\/a> with its old cobblestone roads and half-timbered houses. In the region you can also find many castles and fortifications.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https:\/\/www.wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191129_17_monschau.jpg\" alt=\"The Rur and half-timbered houses in Monschau in 2020\" \/>\r\n\r\nHere in Canada there also have been a few occasions where we preferred to travel by car or plane, like for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wobben.org\/en\/tag\/west-kelowna-2017\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this long weekend in West-Kelowna<\/a> to visit friends.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https:\/\/www.wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/kelowna.jpg\" alt=\"Nico and Marlies in the mountains above West-Kelowna in 2017\" \/>\r\n\r\nIn blog posts from before 2008 you may see some smaller outings and activities in the Netherlands and Germany as we were still based in Heerlen in the south of the Netherlands. That also explains why we had vacations FROM the Netherlands TO Canada back then :)","link":"https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/category\/other-destinations\/","name":"Other Destinations","slug":"other-destinations","taxonomy":"category","parent":0,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/25","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=25"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
