1) December 17 2010 - January 08 2011 Where we want to go Description of our house
Me and my sons have a beautiful apartment in the Amsterdam Harbour area. Our building 'The Whale' is very famous for it's outstanding modern architecture. The house is a warm family home, with 2 kids bedrooms and a large master bedroom. Our interior is very cozy. We just love to live here. The view from the large windows is overlooking the Amsterdam Eastern Harbour area, with houseboats, the river Het IJ and skyline of the landtongue/island opposite of ours, with more great famous buildings. There's a mall around the corner, which has all the daily shopping you'll need, and Great high quality deli's in the building and around the corner. It's a 15 minute bike ride from the old 17th century canals and has 2 tram stops (2 and 5 minutes) from the house that go to all the cities highlights within 10 minutes or less.

Our neighborhood
Our area which is in centre Amsterdam and resembles the London Docklands and is excellent for lovers of modern architecture. Here's a link with pictures of our building (site of architect company who designed it) http://www.cie.nl/projecten/architectuur/wonen/the-whale,-amsterdam.aspx Something about ourselves
I am a mom (41) of two sons (13 and 10.) We are looking for a fall holiday in Paris, last week of october 2010. We prefer the greater Cities! From spring 2011 we are looking for a Trip to Hoboken, New Jersey or New York City. I have long promised my sons that I would show them my favourite place on earth and that time has finally come. I lived in Hoboken, NJ, when I was 20 yrs of age as an au pair. Spent a yr in NY and just fell in love. Later I went on an exchange programme for my studies in Journalism which led me to New Paltz, New York (Suny New Paltz.) I am a web writer for internetsites, a single mom and my boys are very cute Amsterdam kids in words of their teachers: with a golden heart. We are warm loving and caring, and hope to share our wonderful home with great people.  = marks the location of this home
