Vor ein paar Wochen bin ich irgendwie auf die Aktion von holland.com aufmerksam geworden. Hier werden bloggende Familien gesucht, die abseits der typischen Klischees einen Urlaub in Holland verbringen und darüber in ihrem Blog berichten.



Als alter Holland Lunatic (ja, auch meine Eltern fahren seit über 35 Jahren schön brav jedes Jahr nach Cadzand-Bad ans Meer und ich war - anfangs unfreiwillig, später durchaus freiwillig - unzählige Male bereits in der Region) und da ich seit 8 Jahre hier blogge, hab ich mich einfach mal beworben.

Urlaubsreif bin ich immer und warum nicht mal für umme mit Kind und Kegel nach Holland gondeln? Eben. Mal abwarten was bei der Aktion rauskommt. Wir wären jedenfalls nicht die typische Klischeefamilie... wahrscheinlich weisen sie uns direkt wieder aus ;)

Das Auswahlverfahren läuft wohl schon, ob wir genommen werden, wird dann hier in den Tagen oder Wochen bekanntgegeben...
