Here in Holland: You'll never believe it

02/03/20 • 28 min

This a collection of funny stories recorded at the Feel at Home Fair in The Hague.
Internationals from around the world share their thoughts on the wonderfully weird world that is The Netherlands.
The fair was organised by The Hague Online in February 2020. Thanks to Billy and the team for letting me roam free with my microphone.
At the end of the podcast there is a bonus story from a pilot project - Shaggy Dog Stories. I am collecting dog stories so thought I would share one here. Let me know what you think.
And if you have a story to share - dog or human related - please get in touch.

Here in Holland: The Rhine

In this episode I'm joined by author Ben Coates. Ben is a Brit and he's been in The Netherlands for about ten years - he previously wrote a book about his experiences here "Why the Dutch are Different" and he featured in an earlier podcast talking about that.
This time he talks about his new book - The Rhine. The book starts in The Netherlands and follows the river Rhine all the way to its source in Switzerland.
From Ben's site: "For five years, Ben Coates lived alongside a major channel of the river in Rotterdam, crossing it daily, swimming and sailing in its tributaries. In The Rhine, he sets out to follow the river for its entire course, through the Netherlands, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria and Liechtenstein, to its source in the icy Alps. He explores the impact that the Rhine has had on European culture and history and finds out how influences have flowed along and across the river, shaping the people who live alongside it."

Shaggy Dog Stories - Pilot

I've been working on a new idea - a podcast all about dog stories. Having recently become a dog owner for the first time it struck me how many stories people start telling you when you are out with your pooch. So, let's do it, I thought, and here is the first ever Shaggy Dog Stories podcast.
Please share with anyone you think will like it and if you have a dog story you would like to share with me then please please get in touch. There's email - [email protected] - and there's even a What's App line if you want to share your story via an audio message. If it's a good one I'll use it in future episodes. Wherever you are in the world I'd love to hear from you.
