Peace Palace - The Hague
Peace Palace

I first came to the Hague back in August of 2005 for a 3 month internship. I had so much fun that I came back for a second time in January of 2006. By end of that stay, I had a permanent job offer, and I officially moved to the Netherlands to start work 1 June. I bought a bicycle first thing and am ready to do things the Dutch way! I'm excited about my new life and am looking forward to more fun things.

Pros and Cons

    Thanks for the unattended luggage tips. I will keep that in mind when I get to the Hague next week. Perhaps we could meet up and maybe you could show me around the city ? Happy Birthday Diana. Cheers, Abu
