In fact, he’d travelled (hitch-hiked) here many years ago, back in the Seventies, and had on many occasions threatened to take me there.
Although he’s known for his over-enthusiasm, nothing was over-the-top in his description of this city. It’s super chic and immaculate, but highly expensive. On our limited budget, we couldn’t last here more than a day.
But in less than 24 hours we had a good look around. It’s a fabulous place – on a nice day – to relax, be it by sitting outside a café people-watching, by the river or strolling on foot or, like so many, cruising on a bicyle.
There’s very little traffic (many of the shopping areas are largely pedestrianized) and for children there are a number of parks and pretty squares. We took Zenchai’s bicycle and drove to a park nearby to let him loose.
So rich in culture, Maastricht is oh so civilised and peaceful. It’s like a true-to-life Truman Show. Not a hair is out of place, so to speak. Everything here is manicured. People are friendly and they are all welcoming and speak English.
Foodwise, we struggled a little as vegans and ended up at a Chinese that, to be honest, wasn’t worth recommending. Our hotel was a hit, though. We stayed at the Hip Hotel.
It was sexy and saucy and close enough to walk into the town centre. We’d never quite stayed in a place like it and, considering how dear Maastricht is, the rate was reasonable although the breakfast option, at 17 Euros per head, seemed excessive (so we ate from our travelling food supply).

Good news about Supernatural but more than once I read the creator only wanted it to be a 5 year maglia calcio SSC Napoli run. Once the story runs it course you start running into filler episodes each week. I like the show but believe that all good things must come to an end. You hang around too long you become the X Files or Stargate SG 1. The case is prompting maglia calcio Hamburger SV new attention to "tanorexia" an addiction to tanning that some speculate Krentcil, tanners 44, tanners may have, ABC News reported.
