    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 :)

    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.

    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

      ​@@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.

    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🫣

    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!

    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?

      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.

    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?

  • @Treinbouwer

    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.)
