WANDERLUST DIARIES: AMSTERDAM

LONDON    AMSTERDAM

Not to be an extreme fangirl over here, but I can't help but relate most parts of Amsterdam to THE FAULT IN OUR STARS. Read the book, caught the movie with Kristie and Huiyu and cried gallons. I think I was low on salt for that entire week from all that excessive crying. In the day, everything was reminiscent of The Fault In Our Stars, and night time was just - you know. ;)

It was great being in a place where SO MANY THINGS are legalised. Coming from a rather strict and conservative country where even cigarettes are taxed really high, and prostitution is somewhat legalised but yet hidden... Amsterdam was an eyeopener. Plus, everyone there was very happy - probably due to weed. But y'know. Every single one there was so happy, especially at night.

Had this encounter with this groom-to-be and his bros. He couldn't speak English, but one of his bros could. Clearly high on something, the bro and I were conversing by the canal and he kept holding on to my elbow and Jiahui with the rest kept laughing at me. LOL.  

So anyway, AMSTERDAYUM, you so fine. I'll be back here. FOR SHURE.

Must visit places, if you're like me:
Body Worlds
Madame Tussads
Bloemenmarkt
Musuem of Tulips
Red Light District (De Wallen)
Anne Frank Huis
Sex Musuem
Red Light Secrets/Museum of Prostituition
The Pancake Bakery
LUSHLUSHLUSH
Gay Monument



Literally almost everyone was on bikes - the most hated form of transport in Singapore. Probably due to the fact that most uncles cycle here, and all the hot guys and girls cycle there. #justmytwocents.







This was just no-no. #lynziedisapproves.












And the much detested pigeons in Singapore, were filled with love and (loadsa) guts in Amsterdam. <3 I could even feed them with my barehands. OH THE LOVE.





Not THAT much of pictures because we were very busy visiting alot of museums - Sex Museum, Museum of Prostitution and Body Worlds. Damn love!! One classmate felt that we were sex addicts.

Okay can.

Next stop, BERLIN! (with even lesser pictures though)
