During the 13 years of my residence in Maastricht, I have had the pleasure to be taken by surprise by plenty of funny, sweet, interesting and joyful experiences. In this calendar, I share 12 joys of Maastricht. In particular, the joys that are hidden to the eyes of the tourists, but become something special to those who make Maastricht their home. Enjoy being swept away by the charms of my home town.
