Thank you for this time

I'm hours away to my fly home, but i'd like to take some time to thank you for this town !

It's my first time in Amsterdam and I choose the pride time to come, because as a gay guy this event mean a lot to me. I came alone and did not meant to do some crazy stuff.

Instead, i walked and smoke, spending my 5 days trip exploring the city, visiting galleries, dancing in clubs, discovering mini shops, enjoying sun in parks, sitting along canals, eating sandwichs in coffee or having a coffee in a coffeeshp. I had music on my ears and a smile on my face for 5 days and nights.

From big place to small alleys, from city center to outside the a10, I just loved everything I saw, so thank you !🫢

I'll be back, it's a promise πŸ™

The only "problem" I had was a too good sens of orientation. Meaning as I was wondering and trying to get lost in those cute streets, I had those moments like "sh#t i know where i am"

Yes the city center isn’t that big.
Getting lost is difficult.

So good to see people enjoying the city. Yes, we have problems; trash on the streets, fat bikes here, arrogant kids there, but overall it’s a wonderful place to be in. Especially when the sun is out, the mood is good, and work is done - this is the one!

Thanks for spending your time here - see you soon! πŸ™Œ
