At the beginning of October, I got a tremendous Birthday present in the form of Ole and Birgitte coming to visit me in Maastricht. Besides celebrating the addition of another year to my life experience, the three of us spent time together exploring Maastricht. With the intensity of the Masters program I am in, I had not had a plethora of time to spend being a tourist, so this was a great opportunity for me to get to know the city which I am currently calling home. One of the places that we visited was the Bonnefante Museum. With its distinctive building by Aldo Rossi, which can be seen from the water, the Bonnefante Museum had unspoken promise of revealing a different side to Maastricht.
In this art museum there are classic paintings and sculptures by the masters while at the same time there are a myriad of more Contemporary exhibits.
I have always had a love for art, and have been known to spend hours in museums, so I was excited to get to see this museum which is famous around Maastricht. As always, I am lucky that I was given the opportunity to explore a different area of the world with Ole and Birgitte.
