RE: ADSactly Travel: Roads and Trips Across Northern Europe - Part 7

in #travel5 years ago

I have some friends in the Netherlands and they have sent pictures of traditionally dutch architecture. What you have shown here blew my mind.
This is a perfect city. I wonder if it still have some traditional quarters or "yesteryears section", and I also wonder if there is a rural surrounding where people can still enjoy old style life.
About your questions:

I wonder in what kind of city do you live and are you content? Do you prefer big urban cities with modern architecture or small towns, or maybe even country life?

I live in Cumaná, a more than 500-year-old city on the north east part of Venezuela that lacks everything a modern city (especially one that old) should have. The rulers of this town also made sure that no much form its rich and beautiful history would remain intact. Even though we have never been bombed, you would think otherwise if you walk or drive our streets.
Only a 5 century fortress and some colonial houses remain relatively preserved. Touring these places, though is a high-risk activity. So, you can imagine how conflicting our feelings are about living in this potentially beautiful and historically rich town.

I like country life, but country life has its limitations and I'd love to be able to combine the two things. Mega cities are not my thing anyway. People stop being people there
