Interesting! I am from the Netherlands, so a typical dutchie. Do you have any information on where you ancesters from the dutch side used to life? I used to life near Amsterdam. It is called Almere and is rather new. A little bit more than 50 years ago it wasn't there yet, but they build land on the water. Now its protected from the sea with 7 metres high man made dikes.
Wow thats pretty cool! and I unfortunately do not know off the top of my head! Id have to find out from my mother or grandma. I would love to visit the Netherlands one day and see for myself where my roots came from :) Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome! Well let me know if you want a crash course in Dutch language ;)
