🚅 AMSTERDAM - My trip to the Netherlands

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

Amsterdam 2.jpg

I recently visited Amsterdam and Rotterdam in the Netherlands for the first time. Funny enough I am Dutch, with my father being from the Netherlands and I also have a Dutch passport.

I was really excited to visit the motherland! We took off from London and it was crazy how short the trip is (1 hour). It was funny cause you’re in the air literally for about 20 min and then the Captain announces that the plane is starting its descend for landing.

We touched down in Amsterdam and after making our way to central station, we exited and were greeted with the spectacular buildings and scenery.

The Netherlands was amazing and I will definitely be revisiting the motherland again in the near future!

All looks so amazing - wish I could have been there @leelektrik. On my bucket list definitely

Let's plan this trip @pandamama - so much to see in Holland

Great photos, @leelektrik, I'd love to visit the Netherlands. We must organise a trip!

Definitely in the not too distant future - the Netherlands and Greece to cover the other half of our heritage @deimus

Ah, I want to go back - I see I'm in the first photograph haha @leelektrik

Yes, next time we'll take @pandamama with us

Nice!! Looks like you guys had an awesome time!!! Hmmm, rather quiet regarding the "infamous coffee shops", aside from that comment, hehe :):)

Hahaha - thanks for reading the article. We had an awesome time !!!

Great photos. Seems like a great place to visit!!!

It certainly was @sharonnicholas - would love to go back soon again

my fave post! I loved it there, thank you so much for being part of my experience also!
Btw the Burger was not only best in Rotterdam, but best in Holland! and must say it was pretty damn good!
Also next time I would love to rent a bicycle and see some of the beautiful parks!
