That Wasn’t Enough of an Introduction for You?
“I was born in Indiana, USA and my childhood years were filled with downtown corn roasts, riding my bike to Walgreens, and munching on soft pretzels in the over-chlorinated air at the Hub Pool. When I was 16, I walked onto a plane with a Cheshire cat grin on my face, bound for Estonia via New York and Helsinki. For one year I lived the life of a Rotary Youth Ambassador while also having the opportunity to travel to places such as Russia, Italy, and Sweden.
During my time in Tallinn, Estonia I learned how to navigate ice covered cobblestone streets in heeled boots, had my first taste of chopped liver, discovered the pleasure of a wooden sauna, and ate more sour cream topped solyanka soup than was probably good for me. I also realised that Europe was the place for me.
In 1998 I moved to London, England where I lived for nine years working mainly in education and social services. The vibe of the city with its atmosphere of potential and success is something I will always love and miss. In 2007 I packed my bags once more, this time with two cats in tow, and jumped onboard a Stena Line ferry landing in Rotterdam, the Netherlands (well technically Hoek van Holland).”
What is Cloggie Central?
Cloggie Central is a travel website about the Netherlands created by Heather Tucker in 2007. In 2017, the website went through a major redesign with many old, irrelevant articles archived. New, fresh, and more user-friendly content is being added back to the site. So once again, you will be able to find information on things to do, places to stay, and food and drink tips for the Netherlands. Via this travel content based on local knowledge and native-English writing services, Cloggie Central aims to support travellers, businesses, and editors.
You can find more information on the types of services Cloggie Central offers, on the services pages (for travellers, businesses, and editors). Heather Tucker can be reached best via email (heathertucker [at] cloggiecentral [dot] com) or via this contact form.
