I love it!! Thank you for the insight. I couldn't agree more. The Netherlands is much smaller than lots of individual states, let alone making a US - Netherlands comparsion, so it's silly for us to think country to country. But I hope that my home city of Houston can take some inspiration and build out city wide bike lanes and more buses/subways for our indivdiual communities.

Did the move to SF live up to your expectations?? :D It really is a beatuiful city.
