Maastricht, NL - First Impressions

Welcome to Maastricht!!!

Maastricht is a beautiful old town sitting along the River Maas between Belgium and Germany. On one side you find the old town and other the other the train station and Ceramique (the area where I live). Maastricht finally now feels like my home away from home. After traveling this weekend, it was so nice to come back to a place I can call my home-base in Europe.

Here are a few shots of my temporary home town.

The Bakery
(The paddle wheel actually turns and is used to grind the grain for baked goods in this bakery.)


The Shopping District


Typical Outdoor Cafe
(A great place for a glass of wine or beer and people watching for as long as you like.)
