The Netherlands - unerringly flat, with an horizon pierced only occasionally by a church spire or armies of wind turbines, marching unhindered across this watery land.

Every stretch of a water is a mirror, flashing back at the vast skies.

To the casual observer, it’s endless and uninteresting. But once you start to look, there is surprise and beauty everywhere. If you climb a dike, you can see for leagues. Like in real life - you only need to change your perspective slightly to see an adventure rather than an ordeal…
