Van Gogh Village

I am in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. And as the powers have it, I have landed up in Nuenen, also called the Van Gogh Village. Apparently this is where Van Gogh created most of his masterpieces. I dont know much about art, but yea, I do know that Van Gogh was one big bugger in the art field. The past few days have been very cold and temperatures have plummeted to -3 degrees, which was also one of my firsts! But as I woke up today, the temperature is a nice 5 degrees (yea, funny how relativity works), the sun was out for the first time since I landed 3 days back (and boy, is it a strong sun!) and as I saw the lanes flanked by autumn leaves and all pine trees, I knew the reason why this place creates artists. Its FREAKING BEAUTIFUL AS HEAVEN! And its the natural beauty of this place, plus the intention of the people to preserve it, that is so worthy of respecting. I am indeed blessed to be here. Thank you God, for creating this beautiful creation...and making me aware of it. Thank you..
