I stayed much time with family in the small city of Etten-Leur. It is a small town close to Breda. Nice part is the cute small center of town with its nice stores and restaurants. Great sit on the market place and enjoying coffee in the morning and a beer in the (later) afternoon. Also, the famous painter Van Gogh lived for a short time in the city and there is a museum in the house he loved in.
Very nice are the beautiful landscape of the province of West-Brabant. Many meadows with alternating little forests and undeveloped areas covered with heather. The rivers and their birds and fish are beautiful. The weather was perfect and so I went for almost half-day walks for many of the days. I would stop here and there at a little restaurant for a coffee. One of them was next to a windmill and that is so relaxing.
Here are some photos of the views of the landscape:
