Hi from the Netherlands,

[midnightrider]

Hello my name is Paul, I previously was a moderator at the SNS forum for many years now. We had a great group of very friendly and active members there.  But it seems like the site disappeared and I cannot get in touch with the owner anymore.  A lot of forum friends migrated to this forum.  I’ve found Stuarts and Karla’s site “Freerange Naturism” a long time ago and this looks a very friendly and supportive forum to me as well.  In my country the possibilities for free range naturism are quite limited, but it is still possible if you live in the right area.  I love to enjoy nature the way it was meant to be. And I want to thank Stuart and Karla for hosting this forum.

Cheers,
Paul

Welcome! Karla and I like the Netherlands. Our only real experience of the country is when our car broke down outside Eindhoven and everyone was delightfully helpful, including the tow truck guy who didn't charge us and found us a good hotel for the night, the garage who looked at the car and again didn't charge us, even the guy whose office overlooked the place we initially left the car who came out to offer us a cup of tea when he saw us looking under the bonnet of a car with UK license plates!

Breaking down is unlucky, but breaking down at Eindhoven was the best way to break down I can ever imagine.

Hi Stuart thanks for the welcome, yes especially in some parts of the country the people are very helpful and friendly.  But nowadays garages are quite expensive so I hope to avoid them as much as I can.  In spite of the breakdown I hope you enjoyed your stay in the Netherlands.

Cheers,
Paul
