Countryside roads, windmills and old school towns are where you need to go in order to experience the true historical culture behind Holland. Volendam is a village north of Amsterdam and does just that. This town is known for two things, their fishermen and their musicians. Time stood still in this town as six centuries worth of character in the homes surrounding the town have been preserved throughout the years. The houses are all squished together with matching paint. There are tiny pathways around the canals throughout the town making it confusing to be aware of what direction you are walking in. Here we had the photo opportunity of the year to dress in the traditional folk clothing of the town. This folk clothing is still worn by some of the locals today and each town will have their own “style” of folk clothing as part of their identity and association to the community. David and I dressed in the local Volendam style of folk clothing for our photo moment, he really pulled it off well!
