Guest A/D Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 hey dudes, i feel like there have been a million threads on this but i can't find any in search. i'm in amsterdam for a few days, anything essential i should do? i mean, i know you can "smoke drugs" and check out legalized ladies here, but beyond that. i saw there's a dubstep night and a dnb night on friday, might go check one of those out. at 20 eur i feel like i might have as much fun with my ipod, but maybe i'm missing the point. if anyone lives here, i'd love to buy you a pint of something that isn't heineken! love to one and all.

Guest the anonymous forumite Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Buy Shrooms (illegaly), then go the Planetarium (in the Zoo). Avoid Dutch Food. Don't go to the Sex Museums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mafted Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 let us know how the new anti-tourist mentality over there is. i actually think it makes perfect sense, though. they don't want to be seen as the international drug zone, which will make it more possible to legally smoke in other countries, i would think?

Otherwise PM me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
