2:40 and 5:00 what are the names of these places?
I must admit that my hometown Bergamo is something special!!!
Agreed!
@@aWanderlustForLife Are you from the US? Next time you come over here I may have moved over there!
Thanks for your detailed review. I add to the what I would change part that the breast strap is far too low even in the highest position. And the backpack itself is a bit long for women below 1.70m, it hits the butt in an uncomfortable way.
I definitely agree. My husband has taken this bag for himself and loves it. It's a bit long for me.
what if you have luggage where does it go on the train?
Different trains have different configurations. Sometimes bags can go under the seat, between rows (when the seats are back to back), overhead, luggage racks, or you stand in an open space with them. We have so many types of trains, there is no one answer.
NL
I Got a PAC safe back pack to
A reason we can have kladdkaka in sweden is because our eggs don’t have salmonella. Don’t know how or why but we can eat raw eggs without worry.
I am disappointed in the Dutch selection of serials. On holiday in the US I tasted Lucky Charms and it was great, but back here in NL... nowhere to find.
Why are Americans skeptical of taxes? Why do they hate paying them? Come on, you haven't been away that long. Have you forgotten how US taxpayer dollars are pissed away on bullshit? Surely you haven't. Americans hate seeing their hard fought money squandered, abused and wasted by corrupt governments at the local, regional, state and federal levels. Then there is the overwhelming complexity of US taxes which I guarantee are way more layered and confusing than what the Dutch or any other Europeans face.
Very helpful thanks!!
Very helpful!❤
Great video. I remember visiting this place when I lived in Nederland in 2022
u forgot butter
If you buy it online, can u get the actual ticket (e.g amsterdam and region) at ns service centre at schipol airport?
4:20 Visit a fast food cart with a big sign that says freshly fried herring. Become disappointed that it is not pickled. (There are few eateries in Sweden that sell pickled herring as street food, it is probably more common in the Netherlands. Fried herring is the way to go.)
Hope all is well
I saw another video of a Canadian couple visiting Sweden. They made the same horrible mistake! Visiting Sweden the wrong time of year... Swedes only want to be Swedes between May and September: that is heaven, but we pay for it the rest of the year. And Stockholm too! Cold is colder in Stockholm due to the sea-air. That moisture seeps through your clothes and you can't protect yourself. Writing this on May 26. Just four months of life left.
Hi , great video❤ I am planning for geithoorn , can i use holland pass for Friday after 9 AM and after coming back to Amsterdam can i use it in any network??
⚡Συγχαρητήρια\Είναι χαρά μου που σας γνωρίζετε 🌹🌙🐳Να έχετε θετική προοπτική
I will be in Amsterdam in coming months. Completely new to your public transport system, but thanks for making this video, trying to slowly understand, hope I don’t do something wrong and get into trouble. When I reach schipol airport, I will watch this video again.
Nowadays, you can just tap in and out with a contactless payment. Super easy!
I come from the UK, And live here in Lelystad for some years now. We are trying to get Lelystad better on the map. Our shopping center is totally deserted. Better off in Batavia Stad.and lovely Beach,And hopefully someday our Airport will open up for European flights.
I like Batavia Stad quite a lot! And Almere has some great beaches. Do you have some in Lelystad?
@@aWanderlustForLife yes we have a new beach near the Batavia. Actually across the ship.where that big man structure is. And we have another called the Houtribstrand.😉
Dont post our secret home town! Glad you enjoyed it.
You have the loveliest town!!
I want job I. 🇮🇹 for goat farm
Is the food Hallen worth a visit?
I love the de foodhallen! It's very busy and a bit pricey. But I lived near it when it opened, and just really appreciate having all those options in one place. Just go early or just not at a peak lunch/dinner time.
I live in the Netherlands, just arrive two weeks ago. I've been in delft and it was so amazing, so gouda is next, can't wait
Have an amazing time!
Bro thats bullshit im from holland they all taste the same
Bro, some people can actually taste a difference. You don't have to be from the Netherlands for that.
"Cinnamon roll". Here in Finland we have those too, and finnish we called it, or them, korvapuusti name.
I hope to get back to Finland, soon! So I'll watch out for them 😊
Not just for the gin (Jenever) but also the tallest historic windmills on the planet.
Aaaaaaaa, what a marvel.
where do the NS trains and red buses take you? Is there a away to figure out which color bus you are taking on google maps? For example, how do I know if the bus I take from the Centraal station to the Van Gogh museum is GVB or something else?
NS trains are nationwide and you can use the NS app or website. I wouldn't recommend tourists use them for traveling in Amsterdam as it can get confusing. But Google maps helps. The red buses (not GVB buses) are regional. Again, I would recommend them to those traveling outside the city. Anything within Amsterdam can be reached with GVB transportation, whether that's bus, tram, or metro. Fun fact, if you use Google Maps, there's a place at the bottom of the map instructions that tells you the transit company.
Why don u go back to USA???
The US DOES NOT hand out anything.....maybe to Trump.....
C'mon girl.....Dutch health insurance is mile fm urs.....forget about Bulgaria...
I'm a spaniard who lived in the US fm '68.....experienced a lot of degradation....so much that the thought of regret creeps on me more and more often lately USA and the USAns are best described as.....the worst kind of blindness ios that of the one who does not want to see....the downward spiral is felt, no sense on denying it....

Thank you! That was clear and very well explained.
Thr best Fries are from Menno in Leeuwarden, Friesland.. Only 1euro with mayonaise!!! Amsterdam is a Maffia city ..the proces are not normal 😢😢😢
They are very cheap right now on their site!
Nice video. 👍 Was There for short time. It became too cold. But Zaandam i enjoyed it. Next time to this spot. 😆
Que bonito está ese restaurante señorita, parece que está en un jardín rodeada de árboles y toda clase de plantas verdes 🤩🌷🌿🌳🌵🌴🧇🧀🥧😜
Most Americans cannot even dream of such luxuries. Take time off when you are sick??? Get around without a car saving around 900 dollars per month? 20 days of vacation at least? Going to the hospital does not make you bankrupt??? This must be a dream. Also government sponsored childcare and higher education. Say what? It should be illegal to live so well.
You're awesome! I'm from the Netherlands & haven't visited Keukenhof yet & now I really want to! :D
Tip for next time you are in Stockholm, there is a restaurant called Sjätte Tunnan in Gamla Stan that serves authentic medieval dishes (the kind nobles ate not simple peasant food). It is not even commonly known by most locals, never seen any travel food channels cover it when they visit.
Ahhhhh. Thank you!!
I did a vacation rental earlier in the month on a houseboat it was amazing. Now I want to look into if its able for me to have a houseboat that I can own. I just have to learn about if they can be left all year since Im American. If so then I just need to learn how they get a spot etc! I would love to do what you did rent out the part and have my part ok for when I visit. I guess since all the spots are taken I can maybe put a boat in Lieden, Haarlem, or nearby? Ill even take Alkmaar!
You co the Schoonhoven zilver city en ferry old houses
Endless wars...
You can use your credit/bank card as long as it's chipped for scanning on Amsterdam buses and trams. One beep when you check in and two beeps when you reach your stop. Same with the bus to Keukenhof (bus 852??) from Amsterdam REI station
Yep! It's in an update in the description ☺️
Go to Denmark for better ways! I have never been smoking, so I would hardly smoke anything now, as 76! And by that we do have a Danish Built Paddle-Steamer sailing for more than 150 years. Kind ladies are allowed to be paid for their services, but not professionally, as a business! You are allowed to become married in Denmark, also the same sex, for not discriminating. But you are not allowed to decide if you for some, serious reason don't want to live anymore.
Oh, in Denmark Heathcare is part of the tax paid! It is not FREE at all but paid for by all tax payers, so the price for the single unfortunate, becomes much smaller!!! And we also pay the price which is named on the goods, without extra taxes on top! In fact it is illegal not to give the full price!!!
Every first Sunday of the month you can learn everything about the guild of the bag carriers, the man that carried the grain for the jenever industry. Just find your way to the Zakkendragershuis and be prepared for a trip to the grand past of Schiedam
That's so cool! Thank you for sharing that.
