I`m sure if u go 2 Holland and have money 2 support yourself or a job lined up or are a student they wouldn`t mind. We are all in the EC afterall. I was hoping 1 day when I get rich I could buy an apartment in Holland and use it as a holiday home, thats my ultimate dream.

Some of those back-streets by the canals seem really quiet & peaceful, I could see myself living there...

Move in the red lights!

Post by mrwurzal »

Hey i would consider moving into one of the windows in the red light district if it meant being in amsterdam!

I know it would be a bit cramped but hey! I would be "Living the dream!" (just to clear this up, i wouldnt be working in the windows just sleeping, could be seen as an art piece!)

Happy days!!

I like to do a lot of research on a city/resort before I even spend a week there and this is true of Amsterdam. I have been to the city twice and my research has mostly involved internet browsing (including this major site of course :D ACD RULES :D

Anyway, for those wishing a longer stay in Amsterdam and the Netherlands, may i present you with this link which I'm sure you will find useful.
