Final days in Amsterdam

Three of my gorgeous friends flew in from three different cities to celebrate my final days in Amsterdam. The perfect end to an unforgettable trip.

This image was inspired by the Amsterdam canal that’s been my home for the past month – Oudezijds Voorburgwal – the perfect cocktail of old world charm and red light sass.

Nederlandse markten

If you’re a fan of markets then Amsterdam is your kind of city, with daily markets of farmer’s produce, bio food and flowers, to antiques, books, art and vintage clothes. I love the treasures you can kind in these places, not to mention the characters. Here are some images from and around Noordermarkt, Lindengracht-markt and Westergasfabriek-markt.

 

This image is inspired by the ladies in the windows of Amsterdam’s red light district, who will not have their photos taken (they make that very clear).

Amsterdam shines

For a city with an average of 214 rainy days a year, I guess I’ve just been lucky.

Sun glorious sun. #amsterdam
