Amsterdam on a budget, for locals and visitors

Exploring Amsterdam on a budget is not only possible, but it can also enhance the whole experience. A budget forces us to be more creative in the ways that we navigate and interact with environments and people, which is all the more enriching. I can’t tell you how often I had to challenge myself and step out of my comfort zone when traveling because of money restrictions. Today we’re turning an apparent limitation into an asset.

That girl who took me to the Amsterdam Fashion Week

Imagine this. You’ve decided you’re moving to another country. You don’t exactly know why you’ve chosen that land, other than it’s widespread reputation for being a good place to live in. You think it’s better to start writing to people prior to your departure. There’s this girl who writes for a fashion platform you came across, and she is based in Amsterdam. You give it a try.
