RE: an Off-the-Beaten-Tour through the Nine Little Streets in Amsterdam

Yeah, now you mention, Brugge also being the Venice of the North indeed.
Expect Amsterdam in full colour when you visit, unless you find yourself a B.W filter for the eyes 😆
Light Festival|: Can be nice, mostly overrated, but that is just my humble opinion.
But please do visit Amsterdam again. Let me know when, so I can give some advice and perhaps - if you like - drink some in one of the so many little bars we have.
