One last run to the beach (Nes). Feeling the wind in my hair without a bike helmet. That was my last day on Ameland, the island that was invented for bicycles.

A Last Morning in Hollum
The last day on Ameland begins quietly. The wind is mild, the sky slightly cloudy – just as befits a worthy farewell. The suitcases are packed, the bike is ready once more. Before boarding the ferry, a final walk awaits two special places that embody the essence of the island.

had a nice day together today. The starting point was in Nes and the destination was the lighthouse and windmill in Hollum. We drove a beautiful dune path. Breaks with warm chocolate, fish rolls and co. The mill was open and we got an interesting tour. Was great today 🤗
