Having gone through my latest blogs, my lovely co-bloggers & readers must be already aware that we were on a 75-day tour of Eindhoven (Netherlands) from 10/05/24 to 27/07/24 to fulfil an important mission of assisting my son & daughter in law in the delievery of their first child.Apart from fulfilling our mission we had some amazing local trips which I have already described in my latest blogs.During our stay at Eindhoven we embraced every opportunity to make each moment memorable living life to the fullest.In the process we made some memories of the beautiful place that will live on in our hearts, creating emotional connection.These memories we will cherish for ever being an invaluable treasure of our heart.We never know this may have been our last visit to the place which we have visited on three occasions in the past five years.Here I take this opportunity to replay some precious moments of the tours through a panaroma of images captured by us during our Eindhoven visits.Happy Reading friends.

I have very sweet memories of the place (Eindhoven) etched in my heart.I will like to present some meaningful quotes on these “Memories” for my valued readers (Credit to the writer of these quotes,Mr.Chris Allmer to whom I am so very grateful):

“Memories are the timeless treasures of the heart.” – Unknown

This quote conveys the enduring value and emotional significance of memories. Memories are not bound by time but live on in the heart, creating a lasting emotional connection. By valuing and cultivating memories as treasures of the heart, we can keep the essence of cherished experiences alive within us.

“The best things in life are the people we love, the places we’ve been, and the memories we’ve made along the way.” – Unknown

This quote encapsulates the essence of a rich and fulfilling life, emphasizing the importance of relationships, experiences, and memories. It reminds us to prioritize meaningful connections, seek out new experiences, and create lasting memories. By nurturing relationships, seeking new experiences, and cherishing the memories we’ve made, we can create a life filled with love, joy, and meaningful experiences.

“Memories are the key to unlocking the future.” – Unknown

This quote suggests that memories shape and inform our decisions and actions as we move forward in life. By reflecting on past experiences, learning from them, and using those lessons to guide our choices, we can create a future that aligns with our values and aspirations. Memories serve as a key that unlocks the potential for personal growth and development.

“Our memories are the bridge between the past and present – they help us move forward while keeping the past alive.” – Unknown

This quote highlights the role that memories play in connecting our past experiences with our present lives. Memories act as a bridge, allowing us to carry the lessons & experiences of the past into the present, while still appreciating & honoring our personal history. By embracing & reflecting on our memories, we can remain connected to our past while remaining open to new experiences & opportunities in the present.

“Precious Memories” :They are the ways of holding on to the things you love, the things you are ,the things you never want to lose.Death leaves a heartache no one can heal.Love leaves a memory no one can steal.

In conclusion,these quotes about making memories have reminded us of the importance of cherishing & capturing the precious moments that make up our lives.They have encouraged us to slow ,be present & createlasting memories that will bring joy & warmth to our hearts for years to come.Life is too short to let these moments pas by us ,so these words of wisdom inspire to embrace every opportunity to make memmories that willbe cherished for ever.As you embark on your journey ,remember to life to the fullest & make every moment count.

Apart from our latest visit ,we have been to Eindhoven in August 2019 & July 2022 & have great memories of the other European countries we visited keeping Eindhoven as our base.Here I am sharing some images of the places we had visited on those tours.

I am a travel enthusiast from Jaipur, India always full of curiosity to explore new places marked by some cultural, geographical & historical significance around the globe. Also I love visiting places full of adventure/mystery & have undertaken many amazing trekking expeditions to difficult locations needing toughness of body, soul &the spirit. I have explored most of Indian states/UTs to learn about their culture,had cultural exchange with people & learnt to respect their religious beliefs/customs.In September 2019, we went on our first foreign trip(50 days)to Netherlands, France, Belgium& Switzerland.Again in July 2022 ,we got a chance to visit Europe & have visited(75-day trip)Italy ,Portugal, Germany,Spain & Vatican city. The trips were full of amazing monuments,natural landscapes & places of great scenic beauty.Enjoyed the visit enormously.Having traveled so much I felt like travel blogging & here I am doing just that !Apart from travel-blogging I also like poetry. Basically I am an Electrical Engineer retired recently from Central Govt. Service after serving for 38 yrs. Meanwhile I have completed my Master of Social Work degree to pursue my Social obligations towards my fellow beings & am engaged in rendering Social Services to the needy &the disadvantaged ! Also I will like to pursue my new-found interest/hobby of writing Travelogues to benefit my readers by providing max. details like statistics, demography, historical origin, way of life , professions , languages spoken & the culture/customs associated with any place. While enjoying any tourist place, I simply advocate that one must also try to learn about the place. I travel and then share the collected information with the potential traveler .Hence the name of my site - Travel and share.😊

  1. Goodness, Dhirendra, what a wonderfully insightful post this is! You have combined all that you loved in your travels, and presented through your outstanding photography, added your beautiful family, and the template for living a long, healthy , happy life. The quotes are all the words of wisdom, to remember. You are fond of Eindhoven, and for a good reason as there are so many interesting places, and events to see that it is a paradise on earth to live there. The inclusion of Vincent Van Gogh and his paintings is a delight for all your readers.

    Your European tour of all the countries we dream of visiting did not disappoint in your generosity and we saw through lenses what a wonderful world it is. Your post, Dhirendra, is the embodiment of the famous statement from another traveler, the great Hans Christian Andersen:

    ” To move, to breathe, to fly, to float, to gain all while you give. To roam the roads of land remote, to travel is to live.”

  2. Thank you, Dhirendra ji, for this outstanding post that captures so many aspects of your journey to the Netherlands and other countries. Your reflections on memories are truly wonderful. I was curious, though, whether this was your last visit to the Netherlands. Is your son planning to relocate to another country?

    You’ve done a fantastic job detailing the places you visited and their unique characteristics, accompanied by hundreds of well-labelled pictures. I was particularly impressed by your visit to the native place of Vincent van Gogh, whose paintings are exceptional. The information you provided on the Time Machine, Space farming, and Vertical farming was also fascinating.

    Since you’ve seen the Leaning Tower of Pisa, I recommend that you visit the leaning temple of Ratneshwar Mahadev in Varanasi when you get the chance. I had written a post on this temple myself. Once again, thank you, Dhirendra ji, for sharing the link. Otherwise, I would have missed out on reading such an emotional and informative post about your journey to Eindhoven and other prominent places in Europe.

  9. Your writeups on your visit to Europe is awesome, educative, informative and all put together, I should say, IT WAS A FEEL FEEL AS THOUGH A READER IS HIMSELF/HERSELF visiting the places of historical significance.

    This is because each place and monument has been clearly described / extolled with the best photographs of the place. The originality with which all are given shows your ability to pen down the descriptions with graphic amplification.

    All these makes the readers to visit your blogs a number of times and each time one finds it afresh; that is the BEAUTY of your travel blogs.

    Wish to have many of these in future too.

    With high regards
