Group outing
Saturday morning, October 11 takes us outdoors for a group excursion. The exact details are still being finalized (ideas welcome!). We’re considering a scenic boat trip through the Weerribben wetlands, where we can subtly bypass the crowded tourist town of Giethoorn but have a similar experience of Dutch traditions.
Abstract book
Please note that there may be some changes to the schedule, which will be communicated in the schedule on our website.
