The Adventures of Unplanned Euro Trip

This is the 3rd time I'm visiting the continent of Europe, and I have always stayed in one country visiting the same cities I've seen in my previous holidays here. I must say, the Netherlands have very nice cities (Amsterdam, Den Haag, Rotterdam, Utrect, Leiden) that I can't get enough of. But considering the time and money (not to mention the effort of tita Dijne to send supplemental documents)I spend when processing a Schengen visa, I should take advantage of it. It's not actually me who realized that, but my fiance who'd been wanting to show me around if schedule permits. I do like seeing new places, but I don't like stepping out of my comfort zone. I have been accustomed to Holland and I'm loving it that I feel contented to spend a month just staying in one place. Maybe it's because I am not a natural traveler, and I don't have that traveler's drive to explore.

However, Mark has a point. Countries in Europe are so close together, there's no reason to not see even just one country apart from Holland. Belgium, for example, is basically just a shit away and we still didn't take an effort to visit. So this week we decided to break the barriers of my lazy-travel sickness and went with an unplanned adventure. 4 countries, 5 cities, in 7 days. Yes, it's crazy, I know!
