And let’s clear up the myth about the region’s accessibility. Twente isn’t that far from the Randstad. Thanks to the A1 highway, you can be out of the region in no time by car, and travelling between towns and cities in Twente is mostly traffic-free (and often shorter than commuting in the Randstad), or by bike through green landscapes, with Germany just next door. Whether it’s for work or pleasure, Twente is close by.
