Ok so yes I partied too much while in Amsterdam, so what? In three days, I drank like a fish, walked-walked and walked like there's no tomorrow, and kept myself awake for straight 48 hours. It is one of those things that you felt you should do because you're only gonna be there for a short time.
Highlights:1) Meeting some of our topnotch VTers namely Martin_nl, ThereseHeather, ATLC, pieter_jan_v, to name a few. Great people to hang out with and certainly serious travelers with some serious hobbies and interests. Kudos to you guys! Someday, I'll be a top 1000 myself... but I'm happy to finally get a star here, I think I'll be just as happy if I'm top 50,000. hahaha
2) Eating some good Indo-Dutch food. The week before this trip, I was living off of salads and protein shake, saltless meals and gallons of water. What a relief to finally taste food again. Thanks VT!
3) Exploring Dam Square and the red light area. It was fun and it's not demoralizing contrary to common beliefs of most people outside Netherlands.
4) Just simply forgeting about my hectic life in the U.S.... worry free vacation!
