Utrecht

Utrecht was a nice city and probably one of my favourites in the Netherlands. A quaint university town with a relaxed atmosphere, but with enough buzz to keep it interesting - reminded me of Cambridge in some ways.

With it's historical buildings and sparkling canal wharves; trendy shops and outdoor cafes; and friendly locals who were willing to take you out for the day, Utrecht was a great place to chill.
