Working in Amsterdam

[CraigyLee]

Going to be working in Amsterdam three days a week for the next few months.

Digs and travel paid for by work. Where would be a good place to stay?

Drugs and hewers aside what should I do in my spare time?

personally i'd get work to fuck off Amsterdam and gan work in Utrecht

I've got a Google map of all the good bars I used to frequent @MackneyHackem, I'll send it across if you're interested. They're mostly around the east or south like but its likely you'll be that way on anyway.

Where's the office?

Teleport? Nearest station is Amsterdam Sloterdijk.

Yes that sounds good thanks. How long were you out there for?

At least you'll be out of London for a while eh....

 

[Framing The Moment]

pop through to Haarlem, mini Amsterdam without the fuckwits, loads of bars plus a visit to the Jopenkerk

I imagine I’ll be eating out the whole time

Not recommended with hewers like.

Bos en Lommer will be handy and is even more like Hackney than Hackney.

P.s. and it has a KFC if you're missing that London 'chicken bones' vibe.

Disappointed at the level of bitterness and jealousy on the thread so far.

Here's one for you given you like eating out - a cracking Italian restaurant called Toscanini. Only been the once, thought it was spot on.

Toscanini English

You’ll sharp get sick of living out of a suitcase mate.

Three days a week for 2-3 months? I doubt it like.

Add in the hassle of the travel. First week or two is ok, then just becomes a chore. Well it does for me.

thread not panned out as youd hoped?

Not at all.

I explained I'd be in Amsterdam for work and obviously I'll be on about eating and drinking and mooching about after I've finished work, thought it was quite obvious what I was after.

Amsterdam is usually on the circuit when bands do European tours. Look up the listings.

 

[Wonderbra]

Try and get to Utrecht for a night. Much better than Amsterdam

I can’t think of any top Dutch bands. Aqua of barbie girl fame?

Still just asking for recommendations in Amsterdam like. Sorry if my OP wasn't clear enough.
