If you're new to my channel and videos, hi! I'm Evan Edinger, and I make travel vlogs of all the exciting places I visit. I started travel vlogging about 8 years ago because I wanted to see more of the world and be able to watch back some of my adventures. I also make weekly comedy videos every Sunday on my main channel usually revolving around funny differences between British vs American things! Anyway, thanks for stopping by!

Those little triangles on the road are "haaientanden" (shark's teeth). They show that you don't have right of way :)
yeah haha we figured it out eventually!
That first 'stroopwafel' looks more like a thin stroopkoek. You can find those in the supermarket as well, they're usually a bit thicker and the stroop is also a bit more gooey, thick. The cookie part is also a bit dryer, more like a sand cookie.
Ik heb ze weleens zelf gemaakt. Het zijn gewoon twee zandkoekjes met stroop ertussen. Het is aanzienlijk eenvoudiger dan stroopwafels. Je hoeft bijv. geen gloeiend hete wafel te snijden. Het is het proberen waard. Je moet eerst de koeken bakken en terwijl ze in de oven staan de stroop voorbereiden en dan iets af laten koelen voor je ze op de koeken doet, zodat het er niet af loopt, maar ook niet te lang wachten omdat het dan te vast wordt.
Speedy recovery ❤️🩹 Heather 🫶🏽
The bike parking lot was surreal looking
Love this vlog ❤ sorry Heather was too sick to fully enjoy her first trip to Amsterdam.
Gotta love the convenience of the Eurostar and you can never go wrong with good ol' Amsterdam. Always love visiting it 😎👍🏻
made the trip SO NICE
@@EvanEdingerTravel just wish they had some competition to try and help bring the fares down because whenever I want to use Eurostar, it ends up being cheaper to just fly even though I'd much prefer to take the train
@@MattNavI prefer the Eurostar. Basically the trip to the airport alone is killing the joy of travelling. You actually need to first travel to the airport, the wait; and depending on what runway is in use, you have an airplane taxiing for up to 30 minutes to reach Schiphol terminal, and then another 25 minutes on a train. Sorry, Eurostar all the way, in particular when a home-base is London.
The Eurostar to Rotterdam is also great!
Luckily, we are finally starting to see serious propositions from a new operator on the London to Paris route!
Good stroopwafel review! I recently went to Amsterdam as a Dutchie and randomly walked into van Wonderen because I was craving a stroopwafel. Nearly got a heart attack when I saw the price and stomped out making angry Dutch noises
There comments a true Dutchman…….hoe veel??
@@celiabarker 8 euro voor 1 kleine
@@kesvanderwijngaard3398 verschrikkelijk!
@@kesvanderwijngaard3398 dat is duur - ik geef de voorkeur aan kaasbroodjes, en ik ben een Engelsman geen Nederlander. :)
You know it is illegal to hold any electronic device while cycling in the Netherlands since a few years. You can get a 140€ fine.
Gotta love a doctor who will prescribe ice cream
Evan, I hope you tucked Heather up in bed when you got back and waited on her hand and foot. She was a real trooper.
I hope Heather feels better.
The first "stroopwafel" you had wasn't a stroopwafel, but a stroopkoek. That's why it's different.
If you really want to see a nice museum, with lots of bikes & lots of Van Gogh's works you _need_ to visit 'de Hoge Veluwe' with the Kröller-Müller museum. Beautiful art in nature & weirdly mostly unknown!
Haaientanden (the triangles on the road) not being a universal thing explains so so much about tourists cycling in Amsterdam 😂 Same as our fietspaden (bicycle paths, usually separate and red) not being universal: tourists often cycle everywhere but on the cycle paths🫣
En voor Amsterdammers op de fiets geldt het rode licht niet. Thans, dat vinden ze zelf.😅
Amsterdam is a vibe for sure. Looks like it was a fun time!
I'm 1:45 in and I'd like to submit a complaint, cutting footage of the kitty that short is not acceptable (even if it fits the overall pacing of the video).
I've been going to Amsterdam for almost 10 years now... mostly for school, but also for fun 😊
It's really fun to see you cycling around the beautiful little streets & parks, and trying all of those stroopwafels xD
I should really try some of the freshly made ones soon, it's been aaaaaages 😋
Those stroopwafels look amazing! 😍
We wish Heather a speedy recovery and please feel free to contact us if you anywhere in or around the area or Amsterdam! We can't wait to see more of your adventures!💖
8:22 wow Evan, your hair is really growing! (Kinda jealous)
Giving a Like for how hard heather pushed herself despite being sick. I hope she can go back to Amsterdam another time when feeling healthy.
The best are from Gouda the place there invented them. And that was a stroopkoek and not at stroopwaffel.
not just gouden kaas, then! now I have two excuses to visit :)
Amsterdam looks so pretty
Best stroopwafels are in Gouda as they originate there. Visit beyond Noord-Holland sometime.
Iam indian but i likeyour vlog as weenjoy yourvlog from home we have seen a europian country thanke ⭐⭐😅🌹🌹
ohhhh yeaahhhh he said its coming and it did! love this guy.
wunderbar!
Loved this vlog Evan! Amsterdam is one of my favourite places. 🎉
Since you want to see windmills and are in Berlin right now, in Marzahn there's a working windmill.
I want to say thank you for sharing your travels! I’ve always loved seeing these vlogs, but I’ve actually been studying abroad all over Europe these last couple months and seeing you go to spots I recognize now was a ton of fun. :)
the ´arrows´ pointing towards you are called haaietanden - shark´s teeth. They indicate that you should give way. Nice video. Netherlands has more to offer than just Amsterdam, maybe try Utrecht or Haarlem next time?
Evan, thank you for taking us on this trip. I really love the Netherlands have a lot of friends there but can’t really visit now bc i live in Russia so just thank you again
Ps hope Heather feels better
I always see Tony's at REI in the states. Had no clue they were Dutch!
I really enjoy train travel. It’s preferable to travel by plane to me.
What a treat with the Tony’s Chocoloney!! Those are so good!
Even you are acquiring an English accent 😂. Congrats!
Those Biscoff covered pancakes looked heavenly.
9:40 It is an old spellinh the uy in cuyp represents a diphtong we would now write ui. You sort of pronounce a sound like the first e in ever followed by the sound germans write like ü. It is extreamely rare and therefore foreigners tend to use a sound like au or ü (which we spell as uu) instead.
Dutch has quite complex phonetics, like many germanic languages, but some dialects seem to make a sport out of it. Wikipedia sais the sound I use for g is only in a hand full of languages.😂 (3 or so, but it is wicipedia, so I'm not shure.)
I have so many questions. How long did it take to get from London to Amsterdam on the train vs taking the plane? I am surprised you didn't Van Gogh through platform 9 and 3/4 😅. How could you remember where you parked the bikes? You weren't tired biking everywhere? Where did you stay in Amsterdam for the night?
Of course we didn't get tired cycling everywhere; it's fun! :)
It takes 4 hrs 9 mins direct from St. Pancras. If living in the London area and depending on the departure airport, the plane is probably quicker but more stressful.
I’m afraid I’ve eaten a whole packet of these in a day 😮
Real nice - love the vegan junk food bar ❤
Very cute couple 😊
Man...looks like you are wearing a cheap wig when using the cap😅😅😅
yeah I agree with the white cap critique
How does everything look so colourfull? The Netherlands isn't that colourfull... is it?
Did Heather take a Covid test? We just had three family members test positive after having similar onset and symptoms.
Hope Heather’s better now. And why is it that every other trip you two take, one of you gets ill? Has your punny ways angered the holiday gods? I don’t actually know, just taking a pun-t… i’ll get my coat.
How dare you say you trying to find the best stroopwafel in Amsterdam without trying Tregroes!
Many people in Wales know where the best stroopwafel in the world come from...
Tregroes Waffles based in Llandysul
There are still a family run company
Filming Red Light District just for only 3 seconds is 3 seconds to long 😔
