Fantastic place for holiday indeed! the strolling scenery of Friesland, Netherlands is amazing, this ambience really impresses me much, thank you for sharing us to see…
Great episode about our beautiful province! There is so much more to see and do. Next time, be sure to visit Dokkum (beautiful fortified small city), the forests around Bakkeveen (De Slotplaats), or one of the Wadden islands. My favorite is Ameland, but all of them are totally worth it! Welcome back.
Forget everything above and go to the whole other part of Fryslân 😂 Markus is talking about the cleygrounds and the frisian Gaza, you'd better go to the Wâlden and Gaasterlân!
Glad you guys visited friesland.I was born and raised in a small village in friesland. Your video made me homesick..I live in the USA now. do visit the island of AMELAND just lovely.thanks again for your great video.
A translation of the first two couplets of the poem: Along with the music When melodies no longer come to mind Eyes keep on searching in the dark Tinnitus plagues eardrums Would you be mij tambour-metre? Then we’ll walk with high knees the stride (does not really make sense to me) on the back roads of Methusalem Take me along the canals where we have fished, swam Sun scorched our backs without noticing Where we would raid duck’s nests in the reeds Slapped wet socks against the fence Startled by cattle stomping in the pasture I'm sure somebody else can do better, poetically, but this is in essence what it says.
Great video, but did you know you can also explore De Alde Feanen by water(or even better in my opinion compared to by land) ? You can rent small motorised boats there for one or more days (because inside the park are a lot of small islands where you can set up a tent to spend the night). Maybe an idea for the next time you guys visit the province.
Those people rowing in the canals where probably training for the HT -race. That is a race with sloeps ( rowing boats, the kind you filmed) from the town Harlingen to the island Terschelling
If you want to visit the wadden in the future I would recommend a sailing trip with a boat that can dry out (droogvallen). Don't forget to bring binoculars and a bird book. @@dravisandanna
Really nice, oh and Frisian, although different from Dutch, is definitely closer to Dutch this day in age than anything else, even old english or German
Jep, bekijk het als reparaties voor jullie bezetting van ons land. Wij proberen hier een 2000 jaar oude taal en cultuur levend te houden, en Holland heeft dat veel te lang geprobeerd te verstieren.
a few years ago travel planet said it is a must visit location and a unknown pearl, wich made me happy and proud being a Frisian.
The simplicity of the video,, makes it meaningful. Thank you.
Thanks for your kind comment😊
Thanks, you made us proud of our province. Gr.
So kind, thanks😊
We are always proud of our province and language.
I used ChatGPT to translate it for you (although I'm Frisian, it's not the type of Frisian we speak nowadays):
With the music along
as melodies no longer shoot within
eyes keep touching in the dark
tinnitus plagues eardrums
if you then want to be my drum meter
then we walk with high knees in sync
over the inner paths of Methuselah
take me along the canals
where we fish, swim
sun without arch our rain scorched
where we robbed nests in the reeds
wet socks clattering against the fence
startled by stampede in the meadow
from the seriousness of dreary evenings
the crackling copper of the flash
then the dark thumps of the drum
so many counted fears, slowly towards
ears blowing nests in a wall
the light tone of snail trails on concrete
step again like a proud rooster
give courageously the measure
throw the staff once more high up
so that it glitters in the sun
I tap the jingles on the triangle
as if we were going to walk the taptoe
Hope this helps :-)

Thanks for these tips! We are very eager to visit one of the Waddeneilanden and we'll keep Ameland in mind😊

@@YoritFM Gaza? You are sick in your head.

I'm a student who'll study at Leeuwarden and this is so helpful! Thank you!
Fryslan is my heritage

Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Looks peaceful and the perfect spot ❤
It's super peaceful❤️
Thank you for showing my home Province. You present it in a beautiful, serene way. 👌👍

Home sweet home! ❤
Home sweet home❤️❤️
You can walk over too Ameland if the waters are low.
Limited time ofcourse because of the tides.
Very nice, I've only visited once, thanks from Greg Defriese in the US
Many thanks!😊
You drove by the old city of Dokkum when you went to national park Lauwersmeer/Waddenzee. Much nicer city then Leeuwarden.
That's not nice
Gud one..
Thanks!
You... thought the shell path was left over from ancient times? xD
😄How did all the shells get there?
@@dravisandanna dump trucks, most likely. They use them for making paths much like other countries use pebbles.
Friesland is a NATION! Like Ukraine! Holland or Niederland as they call now 😂
Was?
Really nice, oh and Frisian, although different from Dutch, is definitely closer to Dutch this day in age than anything else, even old english or German
