Great choices and footage of these places. One thing about the pronunciations. The CH in some of these town names, is the same as how you pronounced the G in Giethoorn. So that goes for the cities of Utrecht & Maastricht and the Zaanse Schans. The CH, SCH & the G are sounds created at the back of the throat. Like the sound you make, when you clear your throat. Keep up the good work!
