Congratulations to Prince Friso! I must say, I am very impressed with the resume that Lucien has posted. To graduate Cum Laude with a double major, especially one that consists of two of the most difficult subjects, is next to impossible. He must be a very brilliant man.

Not the same year sorry,but the next was when he majored in Economics,he did study both Space Sciences and Economics simultaniously tho.
In 1997 he studied one year at INSEAD,Fontainebleau,the European Institute of Business Administration where he obtained his MBA.
Yes,he is the wizzkid of the family,oh well,here:
The Dutch Royal House
His work,past and present:
The Dutch Royal House
Impressive on all accounts still,indeed.

Thanks, Lucien! You are right. He may not have studied these programs simultaneously, but it still incredibly impressive. Prince Friso seems like a very intelligent person.

Oh but he did study both simultaniously,he just graduated in Space Sciences a year before he graduated in Economics.
Air & Space Sciences in Delft from 1988 to 1994.
Economics in Rotterdam from 1990 to 1995.
He had a beautifull house along a canal in the center of Delft at the time,
across the canal from the Old Church where he and Princess Mabel married.
He was THE "talk of the town",the brains everyone envied,
an amazing,and down to earth,talent and,a smart looker at that time...  ..

Princess Mabel was in Paris this saturday. I 'bumped in' to her in the Saint Germain des Prés district. She was with two other women, possibly her sisters.

Her twitter said that she attended the Viktor & Rolf fashion show at Paris Fashion Week. She described it as "amazing".

Its a shame there's no pictures, I don't hear about Princess Mabels work so often. 
It's wonderful she travels so far, for her work.
