Jos of Maastricht - Jos had a sense of humor and brought the history of Maastricht and Europe into perspective as he safely walked us through the streets, mill, and garden and regaled us with stories of be-headings, struggles of the poor, losses from wars and human strife. A wonderful touch from a local and life-long resident who cares.
