Within easy reach of its popular neighbour Amsterdam (a 15 minute train ride from Schipol Airport, to be exact), Leiden is the perfect place for anyone that wants to experience Holland without the crowds.

Time for another guest post – yay! This one is from my friend from way back when, Dan (it feels so weird writing that…. you’ll always be Seymour to me…. well… ‘Cmor’, because when we were tweens we wrote everything phonetically). He’s an even keener travel bug than I am – I’m never quite sure […]
