As a traveler or an Expat sojourning in foreign climes you sometimes come across information, news, or happenings from your home country that just make you burst with pride.

Hailing from the land of tulips and wooden shoes, I’d like to share with you this video created by the Groen Brothers about a bizarre innovative new trend in green transportation developed in the Netherlands. It’s called HUPPELEN, or . . . well you just have to see it to believe it. I am so proud to be Dutch. Thank Zeus there is YouTube to spread this around the world.

Please share with me similar moments of pride you have experienced about your home country.
