Glad to see you here! Sorry I can't yet write in Nederlands...
Wonderful idea, Chiara. I hope we can have a good turn-out. I have some vacation in July, but haven't decided where to go. My 7-year old son will be spending three weeks with me then.
So when you are finished with your training, how would you like to give an AOW class?

Greetings from Ireland.
And one more welcome. This one from a Dutch descendant. My mother came here from Maastricht.
Hello and welcome from Seattle WA USA. I have been to Amsterdam more times than I can count. I really like the Dutch people. I hope you take the plunge into the cold of the North Sea. Let me know how it goes if you do.

Oups I havent checked this thread for a long time. I am surprised to see this thread coming on top of the introduction board again as I have been around for quite a while already! 
Anyhow, thanks for the new welcomes!
KJ, I wasnt intentionally ignoring you, but apparently I had never noticed that you responded! I hope youre still around and that you notice this reply!
If wed like to organise some diving together with a group of people of Scubaboard, I guess the best place to post such things would be the European forum. (This introduction forum simply moves too fast to keep following it!) I may organise a dive trip in the Netherlands next spring or something. Ill keep you posted on the European forum! Where about are you, by the way?
Kgdiver: what is so nice about Dutch people? I think theyre pretty rude actually! Seriously!!
To give you an update about my scuba diving here: this last summer I made my first dives in the Netherlands (in a freshwater lake Vinkeveen and in the North Sea in Zeeland).
I didnt enjoy Vinkeveen at all as there wasnt anything interesting to see besides some beer cans, a piece of grandma underwear and a wreck of a bus dumped by some scuba freaks who obviously felt very bored!
Zeeland was beautiful though, there was a lot of life to discover: many lobsters, crabs, etc. Id love to continue diving, and in the Netherlands as well, but only when the water isnt too cold (Im the spoilt warm water type of diver I guess!)
regards,
Watersprite

You know, KLM flies to Bonaire 2 times a day from Amsterdam, and the Euro/Nafl rate is very favourable right now... Just a hint...
Duiken in Nederland, ik moet er niet aan denken :wacko:
Ayo!
