Always gotta find a good english language bookstore to spend money you don't have on better covers!

Had the best time on their bike tour. Amsterdam was made to be experienced by bike. People are a bit wild but for the most part felt pretty safe - beware though 😅

Truffle parmesan fries…need I say more. More filling than you'd expect.

I got lucky there was little queue when i went at like 11 on a Thursday. Their brown sugar iced latte is a work of art. The Tofu puff is delicious.
Chun Café | Amsterdam
The coffee is in fact elite. As is their cinnamon bun. I came back multiple times.
Selma's Nordic Bakery
The chickn nuggets are amazing as is the smash bacon. I'll be honest I ordered it to my hostel so I have no idea what the experience is like.
GreenFarmer's Vegan
Budget friendly, great location. Walkable to a lot of places.

Tips/Info
Trams in Amsterdam operate similar to the tube in London. Tap in, tap out (by the door inside the tram) with a card/phone. Two 20 minute ish trips - cost me about 4 euros.
Tram AMSTERDAM
Easiest station to get to from the airport into central Amsterdam. Ticket was about 7 euros one way from the airport. I think you have to validate at the start of your trip - I accidentally didnt do this and was stressed! Please do.
