Going to Amsterdam next week.

#22301280 - 09/28/15 02:33 AM (10 years, 10 months ago)

As title suggests, I'm going to the capital of soft-junk, with my sister.
I've been in Amster twice before. I'm staying at the Plantage Hotel, and I'm as familiar as you can be with a town after two visits. I find my way throught the crooked alleys and fairytale bridges, but haven't found any "golden" spots yet.

I'd love to get some advice on bars, bookshops, coffeeshops outside the city centre, which alley or streets slings the better coke/opiates (oxy/tram/sub).

The reason I ask about opiates is because my sister sort of has a habit.
Okay, nobody ever sort of has a opiate habit. You do or don't.
She does.

I'm not trying to set up a connection or a meeting with anyone.
Just want some friendly advice on how to fiend and enjoy myself.

I went to a coffeshop almost as far from the center you can get and other than the fact it was relaxing because not many people were there, I thought it kind of sucked. As far as weed goes, you can find great weed at the city center areas. I just found that Sativa was more popular than Indica, and I'm an indica person.

Step one: get some cash.
Step two: locate the Red Light District, look for a sign with a bulldog on it, and buy weed + supplies.
Step three: go to the Spuistraat. Locate the Doors bar. Say hi to the barman, order a drink and go upstairs to smoke.

Guaranteed succes!

There's also an old guy with a white beard walking around, he dresses like a gnome. Buy his mushrooms and give them to your sister, because opiates are the devil and you're not doing her any favours.
There are no trustworthy dealers in Amsterdam, except for that gnome guy.
He rocks.

Utrecht is awesome
in a lot of ways I like it more than amsterdam
however even if you are into drugs or not
Amsterdam MUST be seen.
It's just too unique to pass it up.

Haha yeah, that's actually the best recommendation.
Amsterdam is like a themepark for the tourists, it has nothing to do with the real Country.

Vlissingen is pretty chill, as is Goes, where I live.
Look, just stay out of North and South Holland and you'll be fine. The provinces are really chill.

You could say the same thing about any major city in practically every western country. NYC or LA or San Fran aint America, Berlin aint Germany, London aint the UK, and Budapest aint Hungary. It doesn't mean these cities are "fake" or "theme park like"

Yeah I know, but Amsterdam is literally theme park like.
It is in fact a real problem for the municipality of Amsterdam, that it is becoming too much like a theme park for tourists. And is being treated as such by said tourists, mainly those from Brittain and the USA.

It was national news and everything!

Amsterdam is turning into a hipster kingdom. I second the Utrecht suggestion.

Most of those hipsters are Americans tho.
Why do we get all the whiney Justinbieber-wannabe hipster fucks while the cool rednecks and hippies stay away?
What's your deal, Americans?

(This is based on my encounters with tourists in Amsterdam. American adolescents are like... the worst people in the world.)

EDIT: so the point of this post is that Americans have GOT TO raise their kids right from now on. Only YOU can prevent hipsterism.

Sorry I don't have anything to contribute to your thread in terms of places to go, sites to see...

But OP, I am so jealous of you. Please come back & make a journal or thread about your visit. (including how much it cost, places you visited, & so on.) Maybe one day I will go to Amsterdam...

OP, stay safe & have fun!

Take care. :cheers:

Based off of anecdotal evidence,
Americans are like the 4th worst tourist,
only out dicked by the english, aussies and chinese.

I was in Amsterdam a month ago.
There are shit loads of people from any english speaking country, really.

I don't know, I never chill there, it's just a place where they got pretty good weed, for Amsterdam.
Usually I take some with me from home anyway. (There's coffeeshops in every city, not just Amsterdam.)
But if you want a place to smoke it, the Doors cafe is the best place, hands down.

There is also a the Doors coffeeshop, but it is like a mirage. I only ever see it from the distance, and when I look for it it is gone :frown:

:frown:

Hey if a shroomery member ever goes to Amsterdam and wants to meet me, Turtletotem, give me a PM and I'll see if I have the time!

:lol:

Yeah, can't forget about the Chinese.
People from the Anglosphere are just rude asshole fratboys who make a fucking mess everywhere they go and harass all the women while failing at rolling joints in a sub-par coffeeshop, but the Chinese get outright bizzare with their obnoxious behaviour.

I don't know about Israeli tourists, never seen one.
