The other day, Shoko wrote about this little Dutch village
and I utterly fell in love with it. It's called Giethoorn and it's one of those
rare birds that doesn't come around too often. Listen to that, the whole village
is connected by a water canal system instead of actual roads so the locals
commute daily by boats, kayaks or canoes. How brilliant! I’d love to take a
trip there and wander around the little paths, spend evenings on the boat
staring at the stars and greet my neighbours with a friendly hoi while passing
by each morning.
Lovelies, have you ever heard of this place? Would you fancy
going there? xo
P.S: More swoon-worthy travel spots, including this gem in Scotland.

Hoi ;-), I live in The Netherlands, but I've never been there. It sounds almost not true (no roads, really?), but I'll believe you (and Wikipedia). This place goes on my must visit list!
absolutely mesmerizing, would love to visit too.
How awesome that you are from The Netherlands, Vera!!! You should totally visit it.

Hi Diana,
I'm from the Netherlands but I've never been to Giethoorn. Maybe I will go to that lovely place this summer. You inspired me :D
