I XXX Amsterdam!

 
Because good girls go to heaven...and bad girls go to Amsterdam! That's why we've decided moving to Amsterdam :D

Stunning, beautiful, awesome, outstanding, crazy, naughty, inspiring, artistic! I could use thousands of positive adjectives to describe one of the most beautiful places I've seen in the world; I could even dedicate all this  blog writing about how beautiful is this place. It's definitely the city to visit, and you would love to stay there for the rest of your life...! 
The Netherlands is a country ubicated between Belgium and Germany. It's a small country, however is full of contrasts between each city and every place. The first impression I had there is how perfect and beautiful is every detail, It looks like a country made by artists and done to be pretty on purpose.  
The famous Dutch tulips! The first reason to fall in love with Holland.
In The Netherlands you don't have to go so far to get inspired... Every place gives you something completely different, Amsterdam is another world comparing with the Dutch countryside, both are amazing in their own way. But I always have the feeling there are so much things going on around me. The city has a lot of things to do, the city center is huge and you find thousands of places to see, museums to enjoy, things to buy, bikes to ride of course! and In the meantime why not smoke a joint...?  

...You can't buy happiness, but you can buy a bike!
If you are a shoe lover like every woman in the world you should complete your collection with a pair of Dutch Klompen! It's so fashionable :D
Everyone has the existential doubt about how to call the country, For me it took like 3 months to realize if It's Holland or The Netherlands...?  :D Holland is just part of the country and part of the 12 provinces where Amsterdam is ubicated. And it's not even Holland! the correct name is North Holland. The country is named The Netherlands! :) 
Some tourists think Amsterdam is a city of sin, but in truth it is a city of freedom. And in freedom, most people find sin.
(trying to be philosophic...) 
I was shocked by the first time I saw the houses in Amsterdam... There are actually inclined! You would thing you are really 'high' as you are seeing the houses almost falling, but is not the weed fault. It really looks like they are going to collapse, and you know what's the worst thing about it? It's actually done on purpose as an architectural design to be able to move up furnitures through the windows, they are so freak!! :O

In Amsterdam is impossible not to take pictures without a bike in the background... They are everywhere...It's a plague of them... There is even the statistic that there are more bikes than the population of the city :D We just love it! 
The Dutch people have such a style at making nice a bike, they really work on that, and there are even shops where they just sale fancy stuffs for bikes, It's a work of art for them! We love it! 
 

                                      THE DUTCH LOOK...

The women in The Netherlands are stunning! they have a casual and very feminine style, They know how to be sexy and how to look nice riding a bike, (Which I think is almost impossible...) but they can do it! They can go to work by bike and still look perfect for the rest of the day. They even know how to ride a bike with heels! The Dutch women look always strong with a strong personality, dressing always to draw attention without wanting it. 
They don't use to wear crazy fashion, their style always is clean,simple and chic. 
They just love wearing leather jackets, perfect for the windy and rainy weather in The Netherlands; A scarf is a mandatory piece in their closet. I recognize immediately a Dutch woman walking on the street like a star, with their expensive glasses and an elegant fancy bag. Also always wearing skinny jeans and perfect shoes which are usually boots.

Something you didn't know about Amsterdam...
The 'XXX' is the official symbol of the city, It's a sexual domain which everyone loves...! And it can be seen all over town, but it's actually just a coincidence. Each 'X' means the enemies that the city had throughout history: Fire, floods and plague.
