A proud moment I had to share: my sister recently served as godmother for the christening of the new Amadeus Aurea in Amsterdam — a tradition that marks a ship’s official entry into service for Amadeus River Cruises. 🚢

The Aurea will sail Europe’s Rhine and Danube rivers this season, joining one of the most respected names in luxury river cruising.

I’ve shared a short video of the christening below. Take a look, and let me know if a European river cruise has a place on your travel wish list.

🌷 Keukenhof 🌷

Walking through 32 acres of tulips in every color imaginable is simply breathtaking. This is one of those places that has to be seen in person to truly be believed!

Here are a few fun facts:

🌷 Over 7 million flower bulbs are planted by hand every autumn — just for an 8-week season!

🌷 There are 800 different tulip varieties on display.

🌷 The name “Keukenhof” means kitchen garden — it originally grew fruits and vegetables for a countess’s castle back in the 1400s!

🌷 The first tulips were brought to the Netherlands way back in 1594 by botanist Carolus Clusius.

This is exactly the kind of once-in-a-lifetime experience I love curating for my clients. Spring in the Netherlands is pure magic — and I’d love to help you experience it for yourself! 🌸

Kinderdijk, Netherlands - Windmills, water, and a whole lot of wonder. 🌬️

Did you know that a large portion of the Netherlands sits below sea level? The Dutch engineered their way around it. The iconic windmills at Kinderdijk weren’t just pretty landmarks — they were (and still are) sophisticated pumping systems, working to push water up and keep the land dry enough to live on.

And the families who operated them actually lived inside the windmills. These hardworking millers called them home — raising families, running the pumps, and keeping their communities safe from flooding.

One more thing — the birds here are king because they have no natural predators in the area. They roam and nest completely unbothered.

Kinderdijk is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and I completely understand why.

If the Netherlands is on your bucket list — or if you’ve never even considered it — let’s talk. I’d love to help you plan a trip that includes moments like this. ✈️
