First coffeeshop: Rusland in August or September 1981. But as I was subsequently to go there so often through all its changes in the '80s, I can't remember what I bought there or even my first impression of the place. It would have been hash, as greenery was a novelty back then as a rule, and as I was always on the way to somewhere else I virtually never indulged in it. A mixture of 25 guilder bags of black and blond.

Last, though I hope not for life: Ibiza last Monday afternoon, where I sadly parted from my fragrant companions to prepare for my return to a greyer, more sodden world.

I guess this is an easy question for everyone... Who doesn't remember their first time!

My first experience was with friends about 13 years ago... None of them knew anything about coffeeshops so the majority of the trip was spent in some rather dodgy places within 10 minutes of the Bulldog Hostel...

We arrived at Centraal about 9:30pm and after checking into our room i was dragged down the street to what looked like a tattoo studio or some other clichéd style of enterance... It was in fact, Dread Rock... With some hardcore Reggae playing full blast, i thought i was being aurally assaulted... Oh well, my friends ordered some random weed whilst i, being a noob and not being able to roll decided that the best course of action was to purchase a rather fine example of a pre-roll... The pre-roll being a pure AK-47 spliff... My thinking was that i smoked hash all day at home, so this should be a cakewalk....

...Wrong!!!

...After 2 pulls, one being actually lighting the thing and the other delivering the most intense high i had ever experienced at that point in my life, i was ready to fall to the floor in a cloud of smoke, coughing one of those coughs that apparently magically jump out of your lungs with no prior warning and with no sign of stopping...

...I went back to the Bulldog!!!

...The rest of this trip disappeared into my mind like a dream i just woke from.... As did the next 2 or three trips before i got a grip with Green and especially my arch nemesis, Sativa!

My last coffeeshop was Central... Didn't want to risk Voyagers as i had stuff to do before my flight home... Lesson learned... Never again!

:D

First one was Centraal back in 1997(first time in the Dam), bought a bag of Edelweiss (2gr). Rolled a joint, smoked and got seriously fucked up after a couple of hits. Chilled a bit and decided on smoking the rest. Bad idea :) got very paranoid and increased heart rate. Got up and outta there, thinking that I must find a hotel quickly so that i could lay down. Wandered straight into Red Light District and immediately got surrounded by a group of very aggresive dodgy crackheads/dealers. Like 8-10 dudes standing in a circle around me, broke out of the circle and walked away. Turned my head around and noticed 3 of them following me, "I'm fucked" thought to myself. Walked quickly to the nearest "hotel" got in booked a room and layed down, thinking "what the fuck?? this city is sketchy!!
The next days where fine but got hassled a lot by aggressive streetdealers and bums everywhere in the city not just RLD. But found out best thing was to totally ignore them. Had an amazing time anyway and fell in love with the city.

Last one was buy and fly at Voyagers 3 weeks ago, bought 2 g of Super lemon bio haze (fantastic) , 1 g Morrocan hash (very good buy considering the price) and a spacecake. Went to Batavias for joints and a few beers before my flight home. Can't remember anything from the check in or the flight :)

The first coffeeshop I visited was back in 1998 and it was Tops. My buddy Danny Blunt and I went there because it was known as an internet coffeeshop and we wanted to get on IRC and report back to our friends who were following our travels around Europe. We had been able to check in from most of our stops as our improvised tour took us from London to Liverpool and then to Paris, Rome, Pisa, Geneva, Hamburg and finally to Amsterdam. We looked at the menu and ordered a couple of grams of Orange Bud which was recommended by the budtender.

The last coffeeshop I visited was Voyagers. Great product, great atmosphere, great location and an excellent budget hotel. I stayed here 2 nights before I left to return to my real life back in April (2013).

First was Centraal nov 2011, bought a pre-rolled ( and learned that theirs suck).
Last was Voyagers April 2013... Amnesia, good stuff! But i am reading all of the stories about being so amazingly impressed with the weed, i got really really high, eventually, but i had to smoke a shitload, and eat a ton of cakes. How can my tolerance be that high?

easy times in 1988 or 89, when it was still a rasta shithole. it was the first coffeeshop i saw and so the first i went into. it was fucking wonderful, i remember buying black hash and generic skunkweed, and being asked not to drink my own water, (bottled water, i don't mean they asked me not to drink my own piss).

the last shop i visited will have been voyagers, it always is since hb took it over. before that it was usually the coin.

if i'm honest, as good as voyagers and many of the modern coffeeshops are, i do miss the old seedy places. and i really miss the street dealers, they were great and would provide all sorts of entertainment and funny stories to take home. you know, as well as drugs if you fancied them.

I think the first coffeeshop I visited was called fancy free back in about 2001, looked for it since but it's closed. I got some Jamaican outdoor weed which was very sweet tasting and the then gf got some space cake had a couple puffs on my joint and went green :mrgreen:

Last coffeeshop I visited in 2011 i'm really not sure, I bought some blue cheese from barneys but i smoked it somewhere else as barneys was very busy and I wanted to get a bit closer to central station, think i smoked it in 420 but it may have been greenhouse effect or dampkring II, wherever it was that blue cheese was some of the tastiest and strongest weed I've ever smoked :mrgreen:
