So much to discover in so small a region.

The Netherlands is a salty breeze, an endless horizon, an abundance of colour (flowers!) and fantastic seafood. Head over to Belgium for the iconic paths of the Ardennes, beers from the abbeys and charms of Bruges. So much to discover in so small a region.
