I have received quite a few requests for assistance because I am an American living in Europe. So I thought I would explain a bit so that those of you who are not familiar with the layout of the land could see my location. I have created a map page that shows Germany and the Netherlands. On this map I have placed a star where I live and a blue circle to show the area that I am willing to travel. I can do research all over Germany and the Netherlands but travelling for fotos or going through records books in area's outside the blue ring would mean over two hours travel one way and this is more than I am willing to do at the moment. http://www.palettemasters.com/map/ However, I have included several very useful links on this page and should anyone need help within my area I would be more than glad to assist. Be sure to check out all the links I have included. I included German and Dutch telephone books(Look up live relatives!), German and Dutch news (In English) Free German and Dutch language lessons, Dutch TV guide( so you can see what American shows are on) , German and Dutch Department stores(Check out the fashions and prices!), Maps and routes(find any address in Europe), Translation. And last but not least, though I never charge for helping, I have included a donation button via PayPal for anyone who finds my assistance useful! I hope that you find these links all helpful as well as interesting. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.
