Probably everyone in The Netherlands learns this word at school. Translated to english it means nothing more than tv bag,but we learn it for another reason. It’s the abbrevation of the five islands we have just north of the mainland: Texel, Vlieland, Terschelling, Ameland and Schiermonnikoog.

The last couple of days I spend on the second t of tvtas. With family and friends we crossed the island a couple of times, went to see sunrise and ate Tappas at a Spanish restaurant.

I’m avoiding some mailboxes, they simply contain a lot of new mail.. Maybe tomorrow…
