My house is situated on the fridge of the 17th-century centre of Amsterdam, in the so-called Museum Quarter, a quiet residential area developed at the beginning of the 20th cent. The house is situated close to the principal museums, The Rijksmuseum, the Municipal Museum temporary closed) and the Van Gogh Museum, and the Concert Hall, and has excellent public transport services to the centre. The much frequented municipal park (Vondelpark)lies at 5 minutes walk. Something about ourselves
