There’s 23.4 million bicyles in the Netherlands, over 1.2 millon scooters.With every third person even owning a second bycycle …… this is any Dutch city centre anywhere. Equally universal are the kids flocking to enjoy the last rays of sun, feeding the pigeons in front of the city hall. Maastricht, 4th of April

At the train station
Picking up my daughter at the station, I noticed the details: the well-groomed hair, the pretty lady and the can of Red Bull, not disposed on the street – there’s hope! Maastricht central train station, 2 April 2023
