The First Week


Well I just finished my first week so I thought I'd hop online and share it with you! My classes are all so amazing here. There's such creative ideas here in the Netherlands! My professors are great in fact my Sustainable or "Green" Development and Engineering professor is also an Astronaut with the European Space Agency.

Earlier this week I was able to do some more exploring of the town. Delft is full of lots of history for the Netherlands. Delft is where the founder of the Kingdom of the Netherlands Prince William of Orange lived and was killed in 1584. In fact you can still see the bullet hole in the wall of his home! He was then buried in the Neuwe Kerk (New Church) by the Markt Square in Delft. All the royalty since him have also been buried in that very same church!

This next couple days I'll be finishing up getting everything in order but I'll keep you posted on all of my adventures
