Among the victims of the #Holocaust were my grandmother Betje Bloemendal & 6 siblings, and their mother: all perished in Auschwitz & Sobibor. My sister @juyterlinde wrote an intriguing history about the strong women in our family, keeping their memory alive. #RemembranceDay #4mei

#SaturdayMorning Turkish coffee at Piyer Loti Coffeehouse. The place is named after the French novelist Pierre Loti (1850-1923), who spent part of his life in #Istanbul . The terrace on the hill offers a splendid view of the Golden Horn and #Ey üp district.

These are the amazing colors of Holland in the month of April. A little bit chilly today, but what a joy to go cycling around these Mondrian like flower fields, not far from the place where I grew up... #Bollenstreek #cycling #SundayMorning 🚴🌷🌤

Sad news. Prof Alexander de Groot was a great scholar in the field of Ottoman history. His book “The Netherlands & Turkey, four hundred years of political, economical, social & cultural relations” is a must for every Dutch diplomat preparing for a post in this country #RIP 🇳🇱🇹🇷

100 meters down Istiklal Caddesi, there is the beautiful Palais de Suede where the Swedish consulate is located. Built in 1871, few years after our own Palais de Hollande. I went to visit my colleague Peter Ericson. Looking forward to work together, we are likeminded nations!🇳🇱🇸🇪

Mutlu Yillar. Maybe a little bit early, but we at the consulate have started to wish all the passersby on Istiklal Caddesi a happy new year! Will we be able to go ice skating this winter? Let’s hope so.

Watching #Kul üp (The Club), a melodrama series released on @netflix last month. Set around an #Istanbul nightclub in the '50s featuring prominently some jewish characters speaking Ladino. The streets where we walk every day. Fascinating: the same space, a different era.
