Sam was attentive and listened to our requirements, he then efficiently presented the best options to us and demonstrated that he had really cared for us. We were impressed with his professionalism and comprehension of our perspective. To find a newer place in a good school neighborhood and close to work in Silicon Valley presents a tremendous challenge as it often means competition. He was able to get us a place at a competitive price lower than others. We like him to hand us a FAQ for recommended reliable service providers. We would recommend him to anyone.

Ratings & Reviews
Sam is a very professional and accommodating realtor during my home buying experience. It was first time for me buying from a distressed home. He looked out for my interests genuinely and helped every step of the way. It was not an easy transaction he explained each step with different scenarios so we are not surprised at next step. After escrow he was able even give me where to get what via a Q&A and recommended services.
Sam is a hard worker and very knowledgeable on the market. Whenever we need, he will speedily get back to us. We know how frustrate it would be not to get answer when needed at important decision moments. He has a good attitude and very professional. He works with top-tier team -- loan lender, house remodel crews, and so on. I found the agent's network is very critical when buying a home this time.
We were looking for a property in Silicon Valley. Through a referral from someone at work, I worked with Sam Shueh. He has a good grasp of what we were looking for and contacted me when housing came up. He previewed it as it came on the market and sent us photos and gave us his suggestions. We viewed it and liked it as well. We got the place. Thank you.
We have been searching for a home in west San Jose area for months but no avail. It was Sam who is very knowledgeable on valuation and ability to negotiate with sellers to get us a home offer accepted.
Sam assured us not to over react to the market. He hinted more similar homes will come on the market. With his help it took ~2 months. The contract went smooth. He knows about structures and home issues. He took care of most issues comes with the used home. All in all, he was good and professional.
I was relocating and had to sell my home in Santa Clara County and had to sell it quickly. Sam did not hesitate and had even offered to do some of the repairs himself needed to make it presentable. The house came on the market in a few days and he was able to present several offers for me to pick from. After we decided to accept an offer he was able to go back asking for a higher offer to defray the closing cost.
It was a very smooth transaction. He helped me to pack and offered to clean up
the place until after escrow. He knows the area and have a pool of potential buyers.
The transaction was very smooth. He did a lot extra things that not every realtor would provide. He is recommended as a listing realtor.
We had trouble getting homes in San Jose. We were overwhelmed with multiple bidding and unable to count on a professional to serve our interests. Sam tried to find homes of our interest before they came on the market. It took a couple of tries and in each case he supported the suggested price with hard data. After we got into contract he help to personally inspect the property and confirm or dispute inspection results. We saved money on non-issues. There were still several snags that took place during and after escrow. Sam was able to resolve them timely. All in all, he is a very experienced realtor who knows the neighborhood. We will not hesitate to recommend him for selling or purchase.

I'm considering a long weekend at the beach along the North Sea coast in July. I know it will not be hot and it could be cool and windy. That's OK.
I'm looking for something scenic and not too crowded. Off the beaten path is just fine. I don't want to fight for a seat at a cafe or be forced to make dinner reservations.
Right now I'm researching Zeeland. Anyone have any other suggestions?
North Sea Coast Beaches
8 Replies | Jump to last reply |

Maybe one of the islands?
Ameland or Schiermonnigoog will be the least crowded of the Dutch Wadden islands, but Vlieland will also be lovely then, and is easier to get to by ferry.
Even Texel won't be really packed. Terschelling is also really lovely but parts could be full of teenagers, though it is easy to avoid them normally.
Zeeland beaches can get crowded if the weather is hot since they are handy for Rotterdammers. Likewise the beaches around Hoek van Holland, Scheveningen, Zandvoort and IJmuiden.
Otherwise try the Noord Holland beaches - up by Egmond or Castricum. -

Zeeland will be crowded that time of year, especially with Germans. If the weather is nice, chances are most Dutch beaches are packed to the point where the country would tip over to one side if it weren't connected to the rest of Europe .
I disagree with herismij2 here, the islands can actually be packed with noisy sailors (or sailer-wannebee's) partying away until deep in the night if the weather is nice. You can reach the other side of the harbors by jumping decks from boat to boat. We've had a couple of nice days around Pentecost this year - the yacht harbor was full and over 100 ships had to dock in the worker's harbor.
Your best chance is going a bit south from Den Helder. Callandsoog, Petten, Egmond. Don't go further south if you're looking for quiet beaches. -
Report Abuse
Thanks so much to you both.
My initial research says the islands won't be packed during my chosen dates -- lots of places to stay in every price range.
A further south may work better for my itinerary, so I will check that, too. -

What I meant to say is: hotel occupancy is not a good indicator of how busy it will be at the island. Many will sleep on their boats, in tents on one of the camping sites, in holiday-homes and chalets on one of the large bungalow parks.
For example: Texel counts just under 14,000 souls but hosts 55,000 to 60,000 tourists at a time during high-season (922,000 paying guests per year). The island provides 47,000 registered hotel-beds from which by law a max of 45,000 may be booked at the same time (authorities say this never happened yet though). The other tourists sleep on board of their own vessels or stay elsewhere.
The (inhabited) islands:
Texel: 922,000 visitors per year, beach 28 km
Vlieland: 140,000 visitors per year, beach 12 km
Terschelling: 500,000 visitors per year, beach 20 km
Ameland: 554,000 visitors per year, beach 27 km
Schiermonnikoog: 300,000 visitors per year, beach 18 km
Source: http://bit.ly/L3JdUs (ecomare.nl)
Believe me, the islands are busy beehives during the summer. School holidays start June 30 (south of the country) and lasts until September 2 (north). Your planned stay will fall in the most hectic timeframe of the year there. -

Off the beaten path: try wijk aan zee.
It's got quirky surfer culture, one particular hotel that matches that (Sonnevanck), It's relatively close to Amsterdam and Haarlem if you need access to the big city, and the Kennemerduinen, a beautiful coastal nature reserve is on the doorstep. Looking to the north you'll see the beautiful coastline, looking south you'll see a gigantic steel works, that is right next to the village.
perfect for a different beach long weekend imo. -
Report Abuse
Hotel prices will rise as the temperature rises! Many people wait until the last minute to book a room, just because our weather is so unpredictable!
Have you thought about Cadzand? Pretty quiet year round. Lovely, lovely beach. Or a bit further up north near Breskens, the beach at Groede. A hidden gem! Nothing else to see there but a lovely wide soft sandy beach. Don't tell anyone, 'cause this is our secret place.

Advancing the interests of Australia and Australians internationally
Other information
Australia Awards have been offered in Africa since the 1960s and have become a flagship of Australia's development cooperation on the continent. In 2014, 714 awards were provided, including 261 Australia Awards Scholarships and 453 Short Course Awards (Australia Awards Fellowships and Australia Awards Africa Fellowships).
The Australia Awards in Africa program offers Masters-level scholarships and short course awards. Our Awards focus on areas where we have world class expertise, and existing development and trade interests. These areas include extractives governance, agricultural productivity and public policy.
The Australia Awards program promotes gender equality and encourages women's economic empowerment and disability inclusion. We engage and support our Australia Awards alumni through networking and professional development opportunities.
Australia Award Scholarships are Masters-level awards undertaken at Australian universities, in subject areas that align with the aid program's focus sectors in Africa. A supplementary leadership component is offered to high achieving Africans on Masters-level awards with proven leadership potential.
Nompumelelo Radebe says her Australia Award Scholarship opened her eyes about critical public sector areas in a way that she never thought possible. Before she completed her Master of Public Administration at the University of Sydney in 2009, Nompumelelo had been an Economist at South Africa's National Treasury. Upon her return to South Africa, she was promoted to Senior Budget Analyst.
"Before my studies in Australia, I had limited experience and exposure in the policy and expenditure management environments, even though I had been working for the National Treasury where policy analysis and expenditure management lie at the core of what we do," says Nompumelelo.
Nompumelelo now works in the Public Finance Division of the National Treasury. This is where New Public Management, more specifically outcomes-based budgeting, was being introduced. She was able to directly apply the knowledge and skills gained in Australia, specifically outcomes based budgeting.
"I am presently part of a task team that has been assigned responsibility for facilitating and overseeing the development of a policy on one-stop border posts for South Africa," she explains.
Nompumelelo and the team are responsible for ensuring that the policy goes through the different facets of development, from identification to implementation and evaluation.
"I am hopeful that my direct contribution to the reforms in South Africa through the National Treasury will lead to further development of my beloved country," adds Nompumelelo.

The Australia Awards Africa Fellowships include short courses of up to three months in sectors similar to the Australia Awards Scholarships. These Fellowships are delivered both in Africa and in Australia. The fellowships build skills and knowledge of participants, and help build institutional relationships between Australian and African organisations in delivering the short courses.
Artisanal and small scale mining (ASM) has long been an important industry in Africa, providing economic opportunities for many impoverished families. The average earning of an ASM worker is less than a dollar a day, placing many of them in absolute poverty.
It is a highly unregulated industry that is now emerging as a challenge that governments can no longer ignore. Problems include environment degradation in affected communities, water pollution, land tenure, safety and labour standard issues.
Australia Awards support governments to develop regulatory, management and governance structures within the mining sector. A number of African professionals across the continent have participated in Africa Fellowship courses to develop such skills.
Miora Razafindrakoto from Madagascar explains: "The study in Australia gave me skills that have allowed me to create a climate of trust between all stakeholders in the mining area. This has resulted in a cooperative being formed that now regulates the gold operation in the region." The cooperative established between local authorities and ASM workers has resulted in increased income, improved working conditions and the empowerment of ASM workers. Miora completed a Fellowship course on Corporate Community Relationships hosted in 2012.
Australia Awards alumni represent an engaged and influential global network of leaders, advocates and change-makers. There are currently 5,000 African alumni of Australian Government scholarships, with a growing number occupying senior positions in government, regional organisations and in key commercial sectors. Australia Awards will continue to strengthen these enduring people-to-people links.
"Inspiring, empowering, eye opener, fabulous" are just a few of the words women attending the Australia-Africa Women in Leadership Forum had to say when describing their experience. Hosted by the Australian Government, this two-day Forum focussed on Shaping the Future: Increasing Leadership and Opportunity for African Women and was held in Pretoria, South Africa on 7-8 July 2014.
Over 30 delegates from thirteen African nations converged on Pretoria to participate in discussions around best practice in leadership; in particular leadership for and by women. Male and female leaders from the region joined Women Network members in sharing their personal leadership journey with Forum participants.
"The Women Network is an ongoing legacy of the Australia-Africa relationship", said Jamie Isbister, Head of Australian Development Cooperation in Africa, at the event's opening ceremony.
There were plenty of inspiring, reflective and interactive discussions at the Forum.
"African women are about strength and we must celebrate their strength", noted Theo Sowa, CEO of the Ghana-based African Women's Development Fund who delivered the keynote address at the Forum. She reminded participants of the importance of collective and transformative leadership and urged leaders to bring other women along and expand the leadership table.
A reception was held on 7 July in the margins of the Forum and was attended by over 60 delegates, including representatives of the South African and Australian Governments. Ambassadors and High Commissioners from some of the countries represented in the Forum were also present at the function.
Representing the Hon Susan Shabangu, Minister of Women in the Presidency, Director General Veliswa Baduza spoke about the accomplishments achieved in women's representation in political spaces in South Africa. She acknowledged that challenges remain in increasing women's participation in decision-making structures across sectors. She welcomed the Women Forum and commended the Australian Government for the initiative.
"The Department of Women will be looking at forming strategic partnerships (…). Platforms such as the Australia-Africa Women in Leadership Forum, which seeks to bring together leading figures from Africa to discuss best practice in leadership, are therefore very strategic and key […]. We therefore commend the Australian Government for this initiative", she stated.
An important part of the Women Forum was the participation of the Australia Awards African Women in Leadership Network. The Network was launched by President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf of Liberia in 2013 to promote Australian Government scholarships to potential female applicants from eligible countries in Africa and to support scholarship recipients embarking on their postgraduate studies in Australia. It also encourages members to engage in and provide leadership for gender equality and development initiatives in their home countries. The Network currently has over 230 members across 39 African countries, with many members involved in efforts to empower women in Africa.
Eligibility criteria for Australia Awards in Africa may differ from country to country. For more details on the application guidelines and eligibility, visit the Australia Awards in Africa website.
Australia Awards Fellowships offer Australian organisations, from all sectors, the opportunity to deepen and broaden their links with leaders and professionals in developing countries, by providing opportunities for Fellows to undertake short term study and professional development in Australia. These fellowships are in addition to those offered under the Australia Awards in Africa regional program. Further details can be found on the Australia Awards Fellowships page.

Girls Shopping Weekend
Posted Nov 28, 2014Pros: Proximity to all shopping.
Location: Lots of shopping & restaurants close by!
Spacious clean room, friendly staff, good standard breakfast. We had parcels shipped to the hotel and they had already taken them up to our room ahead of our arrival - very unexpected but definitely appreciated! Would not hesitate to stay there again! Really liked the 10-12pm child free hours in the pool/hot tub.

Great Hotel for Shopping Week End
Posted Sep 23, 2014Pros: The swimming pool was a bonus for me as I like to get up and do my yoga and the swim just added fun to my morning routine.
Cons: I have no complaints.
Location: We were there to pick up a snow machine in Sandusky and to shop for Christmas so the location was great. We didn't have time to do much else this time
It was great to walk into a clean room with that big king size bed after our long drive to get there. The bed was extremely comfortable and the pillows were the best I've ever had in a motel. For us the location was perfect for the type of shopping we were there for and each time we walked in or out of the lobby, the front desk staff were friendly and smiling. The breakfast that was included in our stay was all we needed and more to start our busy day and the coffee was perfect. We would book here again without hesitation and we are already talking about another trip down there in the future.

Enjoy Fall in love with Kurt Remington & Leanna Bray Sinfully sexy and always a happily ever after
#Kindle http://bit.ly/ReadWriteLove99CKindle
#Nook http://bit.ly/ReadWriteLoveNook
The Remingtons are the third installment of the Love in Bloom Series, joining the Snow Sisters & The Bradens (Voted BEST BOOK SERIES of 2013 by Supportive Business Moms, UK)
INCLUDES 3 Jam Recipes for Luscious Leanna's Sweet Treats! Luscious Leanna's Sweet Treats jams from the book are now available for purchase on Amazon!
"[The Remingtons] Sweet, sexy, and sensual." Bestselling author Amy Manemann
"Like Nora Roberts, Melissa Foster has captivated me with her fantastic, sexy, romantic stories." Kimberly Winning, avid reader
THE REMINGTONS are the newest addition to the LOVE IN BLOOM series by New York Times & USA Today bestselling and award-winning author Melissa Foster. This 5-book steamy contemporary romance series features alpha male heroes and sexy, empowered women. They're flawed, funny, passionate, and relatable to readers who enjoy new adult romance, contemporary romance, and women's fiction. While each book may be read as a standalone, you might enjoy reading the entire Love in Bloom series (The Snow Sisters, The Bradens, & The Remingtons)
Bestselling author Kurt Remington lives to write. He spends twelve hours a day in front of his computer, rarely leaving the seclusion of his beach-front property, where he's come to finish his latest thriller--that is, until free-spirited Leanna Bray nearly drowns in the ocean trying to save her dog. Kurt's best-laid plans are shot to hell when he comes to their rescue. Kurt's as irritated as he is intrigued by the sexy, hot mess of a woman who lives life on a whim, forgets everything, and doesn't even know the definition of the word organized.
Leanna's come to the Cape hoping to find a fulfilling career in the jam-making business, and until she figures out her own life, a man is not on the menu. But Leanna can't get the six-two, deliciously muscled and tragically neat Kurt out of her mind. She tells herself she's just stopping by to say thank you, but the steamy afternoon sparks a wild and sexy ride as Kurt and Leanna test the powers of Chemistry 101: Opposites Attract.
