EXPLORING THE VENICE OF THE NETHERLANDS 🇳🇱 (dutch village of giethoorn)

In this episode, Michelle and Alex explore Giethoorn, a village in the Dutch countryside that's often called "the Venice of the Netherlands" because of it's beautiful, idyllic canals. Our goal is to find out if Giethoorn is something worthy of a day trip outside of Amsterdam... or if it's just a "tourist trap".

WHO IS BUNCHARTED?

We're Michelle and Alex, an American expat couple living abroad in the Netherlands. 🇳🇱

In 2020, we quit our jobs to travel the world, and... well, that didn't happen. So in 2022, we decided to make an even BIGGER change: to pack up our lives (and our cats 🐈) and move from Austin, Texas, in the United States, to the Netherlands. Subscribe for new videos like this every week!
