We are both retired. Johan has worked part-time as a lecturer at a university and as an engineering consultant and Ans as a social worker. In the summer we live in Friesland and in the winter in the Rotterdam area.
We love good food and we can both cook well. We enjoy swimming, cycling, spinning and walking. We regularly make bicycle tours of 40 to 65 km in the area and often combine that with sailing through the Netherlands
Our children but especially the 8 grandchildren between the ages of 1.5 and 8 years are happy with us. (my nickname is grandfather pancake) The house and garden are therefore designed for children. Behind the house is water where you can swim, fish and sail. There are enough life jackets in all sizes and there is a fence along the water. At the house are a children's sailboat type optimist and a small sailing sail of 3.5 m. In the vicinity are various boat rental companies of open sloops and family sailboats of approx. 6 m. In the garden there is a swing, a transport pallet as a treehouse at 2 m height and a stair go-kart. A Weber gas barbecue is located on the terrace

The province is mainly agricultural and is located in the north of the Netherlands. The village is on the edge of a large water sports area. (the house is on swimming, fishing and waterways). The most important farms in the village are yacht yards and water sports and outside the village the dairy farms.
South-west of the village lies an area with many cycle paths in a landscape where forests are interspersed with grassland. Here are also some touristically interesting villages such as Hindelopen and Workum.
The house is in a neighborhood with houses that are partly permanently inhabited and that are partly used as a holiday home. In the village there is a small supermarket and in the larger village "Balk" there are more shops. Balk is about 1 hour by boat and about 8 km by road.

Nos conseils pour des restaurants, cafés, shopping et activitiés à ne pas manquer
Woudsend is primarily a water sports village. Rent a sloop and go exploring in the area. Balk is a great place to do your shopping (you can moor in front of the supermarket) and is less than 1 hour away. Langweer, Sneek and Workum are a 1.5-hour boat ride away. The village of Woudsend has experienced a poor period without renewal, so that the old structure of small streets and alleys has been preserved.
In our village there is a sawmill that is kept in operation by volunteers during the weekends.
A 2nd windmill is used to make organic flour for sale.
Nearby are picturesque villages such as Hindelopen or Workum where the old center has been preserved. In Heerenveen is the "Oranjewoud" museum in a park-like setting.
The Frisian museum in Leeuwarden and the museum in Groningen have changing exhibitions with accessible modern art. The buildings in Heerenveen and Groningen in particular are architecturally successful.
