I shall miss reading all your news on the website, I truly enjoy reading all the verity and such well written
articles on the site, I make sure each day NRC is where I go and end my night. I will miss the videos and knowledge and insight to things and life in Holland and Europe as well, but the stories of Holland I shall miss the most, as my daughter lives there in Holland. I thank you for all NRC has done to enlighten and enriched my life each day and well watch hopefully in the future that NRC English will come to us here in the states. Thank You again, best regards Doug Morris

I'm always looking forward to 'This Week in the Netherlands'. A great way to feel connected here while still learning Dutch. Though it makes me wish it were longer and more in depth. Please keep up the good work!
