Ook mannen? Jul 15, 2007

Vanaf M-Gladbach is Maastricht niet ver en tevens een mooie stad die ik als Limburger goed ken. Zijn er geen mannelijke tolken/vertalers in de buurt van Maastricht dan? Niet dat ik wat tegen vrouwelijke collega's heb, integendeel!

Accomodation Jul 30, 2007

For those thinking of making a weekend out out of this PowWow without spending too much, I would advise
www.botelmaastricht.nl or Stayokay http://www.booking.com/hotel/nl/stayokay-maastricht.nl.html

I can also accomodate up to 4 persons.

Another option for accommodation Jul 30, 2007

Hierbij nog een andere optie voor (niet-dure) accommodatie: Hotel De Hamer in (Limburgs) Mechelen, ca. 20 minuten rijden vanaf 'Mestreech'. Gezellig familiehotel met ruime tuin en prachtig uitzicht op het Geuldal! Voor meer informatie, zie http://www.hotel-dehamer.nl. Een aanrader, ik heb al geboekt!

Het Parcour - start of the cultural season in Maastricht that weekend Jul 30, 2007

Dear all, this weekend is the start of the Cultural season in Maastricht. There will be many (free) things hapening in the street (including me dancing in a belly-dance costume) (check http://www.maastrichtnet.nl/cultuur/podia/i/het-parcours) and that is the reason why it is worth staying a weekend. Be warned, cheap accomodation will be hard to come by!

You never know when it might come in handy...

last minute´s question Sep 1, 2007

Hi everybody, am attracted by this powow, thanks Percy for yr infor. Whether I can make this trip out or not still depend on the last minute´s air ticket. Urgently need advice about which is the best way to reach Masstricht, as far as I know there is no direct flight from my small town. So welcome any good idea and advice. Thanks.

Nelly, I suggest you take a train Sep 1, 2007

Hi Nelly, I won't be at the powwow, but in response to your question: assuming you arrive at Schiphol, I suggest you take a train to Maastricht. You will have to change trains, via Amsterdam, but the journey should take less than an hour. Good luck and maybe see you some other time!

Schiphol-Maastricht Sep 1, 2007

I agree with Margreet. Take the train to Maastricht! But it is not less than an hour...Amsterdam-Eindhoven is one hour, so you will need at least another 45 minues, but you can check it on www.9292ov.nl.

Was nice to meet you all and very interesting to chat with the people on my side of the table. I probably would've met more of you if I could've made it earlier... Next time!

Unique happening Sep 10, 2007

This powwow made me stay in Maastricht for the weekend and resulted in an altogether unique and learning experience!
In the professional field I also heard about new matters.

Good powwow Sep 10, 2007

I have attended several powwows, and this was certainly the best. The locations for lunch and dinner were well chosen and the tour was excellent. Hope to invite you to Oxford one day!
