PS: fun fact about me
I work part-time as a flight attendant at KLM. For me, working in the air is so much fun; it provides unique experiences and inspiration from all over the world. So, I find myself being a tourist with a suitcase quite often too!

My personal and favourite recommendation for visiting Amsterdam

I've been living in Amsterdam for 14 years now, so you can call me 'an Amsterdammer.' As a local, I take joy in discovering the hidden gems of this city. With a particular passion for food and drinks, here are some of my favourite places in different areas that I love to recommend to visitors:

- Brouwerij 't IJ: A local beer brewery situated in the east of Amsterdam, housed in a charming windmill.

- Cafe Brecht (especially in winter): A Berlin-style bar, exceptionally cozy (or as we say: 'gezellig!')

- Bar Centraal: An incredible (nature) wine bar located in Amsterdam West, which is also a very nice area to visit. Whether you prefer sitting outside in the summer or enjoying the cozy interior during winter, it's a delightful spot to experience.

It's hard to choose my favorite recommendations; there are just so many gems in Amsterdam! Feel free to ask me for more – I love sharing the best of this city.
