Project Pieterpad Born

At the end of 2018 I thought it was time to take a long walk every year over several days. So I bought the books about the Pieterpad and the Pieterpad project was born. The plan was to start at the end of March (2019) with the Pieterpad.

But What Do I Do After The Pieterpad? 

The Four Days of Marbella? Also on the agenda, but then ….. I went to the Hiking fair (Wandelbeurs) in the Jaarbeurs in Utrecht. My wish was fulfilled. There was enough inspiration to hike my whole life. Unfortunately, mostly in Europe, but it is a start. I got to know enough routes on the fair to hike in The Netherlands and Southern Europe in the coming years. Although it wasn't at the fair, I would like to hike the Temple route in Japan too. In a few years I will go again to the fair to get more inspiration. If looking for hiking inspiration, I would recommend to go once to the fair. I went twice, there are always new routes.

Be Good For Myself

With all the hikes I am planning on doing besides my business Databeet. I need to relax. So when I saw that ABNAMRO had a good deal with the program &Meer (Doesn't excist anymore) for a Spa Day! I booked one. The Spa Day is for free for members of &Meer. Membership is free for clients with ABNAMRO.

Choose A Spa Nearby

I choose which Spa Wellness I want to go to and paid only handlings fee (Boekingskosten). I looked for a Spa nearby and booked Spa Puur in Tilburg. I couldn’t wait so I absorbed all the information about Spa Puur on the website.

The Spa

On a nice warm and sunny February Sunday I went to Spa Puur. It was in one word Amazing. I tried all the inside saunas and baths. It was such a nice day that I sat on the terrace in the sun in my bathing suit and towel wrapped around me.

All Kinds Of Welness

There are 10 different types of saunas to try. For some I had to go outside in the garden. Those I didn’t do, but all the others inside I did, each for a quarter of an hour. I am just sitting there in my bathing suite absorbing the heat with nothing to do. My mind relaxes and with that my body.

Ice Water Is Still Not For Me

Between the saunas I did the baths. There was one with salt water in which I was supposed to float like in the Dead Sea. It was nice, but I wasn’t floating like I did in the Dead Sea when I visited Jordan in 2008. There is also a small pool that loop around going into the garden. A bit cold but nice to do. There are whirlpools and a lavender bath in which I could sit. All in nice temperatures. But one bath I didn’t do, the ice water bath. No cooling down for me with ice water.

Bathing Suit Day

I had a nice time and would do it again if ABNAMRO has a deal again. I opted to go on a bathing suit day and would do that again. The program &Meer doesn't excist anymore, but they have GRIP now! They had lots of offers for their clients in the &Meer program. I only used the Spa one. I also tried the app GRIP. GRIPP is a good tool to keep my finances healthy. This one still excist and can also be used for other banks than ABNAMRO, although it is an ABNAMRO app.
