Rotterdam Touristing

A great trip that we (the international students) organized was to Rotterdam, about 10 minutes by train from Delft.  It involved lots of walking around until... a friend of Juan's picked us up in her new VW Touareg and drove us around the town.  Lia gave us a wonderful tour that included lunch at the New York hotel and a trip up the Euromast (like the CN tower, but smaller).  An interesting side note is that Lia's husband is Ferry Corsten, the internationally famous trance dj and producer. 


Rotterdam has so much energy compared to Delft.  Its very vibrant, has modern buildings mixed among old ones, and tons of interesting cultural events.  I think that I would choose to live here if I am to stay here for the full Masters program.  Its only about 20 mins from the Rotterdam station to the university.
