The past ten years have been a hot mess. Getting two degrees, our first appartment, my first job, moving 40km away from home, our first house, a burnout, a dog, a break-up, a tinder account, a new appartment and a fresh start all while travelling from pillar to post, maintaining a social life, get enough sleep, pay my bills and remember to make dinner before 10PM. Adulting is weird. Still not sure how I get to be unsupervised all the time. Or how I am staying alive. Soooo ready for those dirty thirties, baby. Bring it. ๐ŸŽ‚๐ŸŽ๐ŸŽˆ๐ŸŽ‰

Europe, The Netherlands, Travel · 2 February 2015

8 hours in Amsterdam

Rijksmuseum Amsterdam
On a particularly cold morning in late January I got off the train to Schiphol one stop early to explore the historic city centre of Amsterdam and finally meet my very very very long-time blogging friend Bas from The Dirty Velvet. We were leaving for Edinburgh that night, but since our plane took of late in the evening I decided to come to Amsterdam early and enjoy a day in the city. I was going to pay for a train ride to Amsterdam anyway, might as well use it wisely! Two birds, one stone.
It was below zero and I was also toting a small suitcase around town. Not the best conditions, but I tried to make the best of it. The cold kept me from doing much of the things I had planned and I basically sat in a coffee place all morning to avoid catching a cold the day I left on holiday. That failed, by the way. I sniffed and sniveled the whole time I was in Edinburgh! For lunch I met up with Bas and we found ourselves a seat in a cozy lunch spot of which I have forgotten the name (bad blogger!). I do remember I had a sandwich that came with a free mini bowl of soup. I really want to make a Super Bowl joke right now but I can’t come up with one. Bas took a few photos of me being all awkward and cold which I’ve spread between the photos that I made myself. They’re easy to spot because they’re the black and white ones. We also had some fun in a photo booth as you can see in the last picture!

So… I spent my 8 hours in Amsterdam pretty much doing nothing. But no worries, I have a few pictures to share anyway and a plan to return when the weather is better. Because at โ‚ฌ27 for a one-day-retour, visiting Amsterdam by train is cheaper than visiting any Belgian city by the same means of transportation*. Hooray!

    Oh gosh, that’s quite cold to be walking around all day! I would love to visit Amsterdam one day. My boyfriend’s dad was born there so I’d love to be able to experience that history with him. The city looks absolutely beautiful. It looks like you and Bas had a lovely time as well!

2021... What. A. Year. A break-up in spring. My 2021... What. A. Year. 

A break-up in spring. My life in boxes in summer. Moving into my appartement and returning to my job full time after two years in fall. My first dates in winter. All while living between lockdowns and vaccinations. Four stormy seasons finally coming to an end.

Starting 2022 completely clueless, but with nothing but curiosity and a craving to find out where life will take me in the next 365 days. 

2022, LET'S DO THIS. ๐Ÿ™Œ

โœจHAPPY NEW YEAR โœจ
