The neighbourhood is called Oostelijk Havengebied, which means Eastern Harbour Area. It is built 10 to 15 years ago and it's a family friendly area, with lost of green (grass) and blue (water). There's a shopping mall at the end of the street and it's a ten minutes bicycle ride to Dam Square, where the queen has her palace.
If you go in to the other direction there's a public swimming pool, a park, and -if you cross the bridge- the picturesque Dutch countryside.
We have an old Mercedes Benz stationwagon that you can use for trips to other interesting Dutch towns as Utecht (30 km) Den Haag (65km) or Rotterdam (90km)
In this neighbourhood there are some trendsetting designshops and concert halls (jazz and pop and classical music).

We're a family of 4. I work as a broadcast professional at a nationwide public radio station, my husband has his own company: he makes interiors and furniture.
We have twins, a boy and a girl, they're 13 years old.
Other things we love are music (there's a cd collection) films (we own a few dvd's as well) and books (most of them are in Dutch) We love to live in this part of town, that is so safe and friendly.

We are looking for a warm destination in february, maybe Fuerteventura? My husband loves to windsurf!
