I want to travel again but only in the neighboring country. No, I don't want to go to Venice but to Giethoorn in the Netherlands. I want to see this small village I have heard and read about. Giethoorn is a small car free village in the Netherlands. It is popular for its canals, bicycle paths, foot paths, awesome thatch houses and beautiful scenery . It seems that it is already a popular travel place worldwide as many tourists are visiting this village. I want to go there in the middle of the week where only a few people come to visit. My friends and I are planning to go there and have an overnight stay nearby. It is still a plan but who knows I will be able to go there this month as I will visit my relatives again in the Netherlands. We will have a family bonding again with my Filipino Dutch relatives. I am looking forward to the get together. Anyway, with friends or with relatives, I have to go to Giethoorn. You can see in the video how beautiful this village is. I have not done with my notifications yet. I will later after eating my dinner and cleaning the kitchen. Thank you for reading. Have a nice weekend.

I hope you get to go there. It sounds wonderful like you could spend a whole summer there just exploring and taking in the sites. Do let us know what it is like when you go there.

@thelme55 I was hoping you would. It is great to see places through someone else's eyes, especially when we can't get there ourselves.

A "Venice of the North" that I was not knowing. I visited Amsterdam, Bruges and Stockholm, my preferred Venice is still the original, sorry.

You don’t have to be sorry. I have not been to Venice and I heard that it’s expensive there and a lot of tourists. Thank you @topffer. Have a nice weekend,

What a beautiful place. I wonder how long their summers are. I imagine they are short.

That sounds like a very short summer to me but then I live in a desert and here summers last for about 5 months.

@rebelann Calendarwise, we have 3 months summer but sometimes we have only a few weeks when we have a really hot summer.
