While living in Eastern Holland I traveled a little on my weekends off to Utrecht, Den Haag, Delft, Leiden and Amsterdam. A nice thing about Holland is that the country is so compact, everything is close together and the trains are so efficient and easy to use. Taking weekend trips really helped me to survive my time working as a nanny, but then I also met people backpacking Europe. They were seeing Europe the way I really wanted to, talking to them just made me more determined to get out and see Europe on my own.
