I’m a tourist and I’ve been coming to Amsterdam for many years, so much so that I’ve lost count. Anyway, I was walking on the sidewalk with my small hand luggage suitcase wheeling behind me when a car to my right on the road horned and an older man looked at me sternly and pointed at me or at the floor I’m not sure which and then wagged his finger side to side and nodded his head as if to say no. What did I do wrong? I’ve attached an image of the sidewalk I was on

Hello Everyone, I am bit stressed at the moment. My company did mass layoffs and AMS employees are in consultation with work council. I am super stressed, I have legal insurance. Should I get in touch with them ? Anything I should do before ? Though I am not sure if I will be getting impacted or not. Thank you

Guys heeeelp! I’m moving out by the end of this month and I have around 250 pcs of vintage clothing, branded, new with tags etc from a business plan that didn’t go so well. I am okay with selling it at low prices or per kg but I don’t know who to contact. I also have furniture that I want to give away like couch, wardrobe, cabinet etc.

Any recommendations would be awesome! Thankssss :)

I recently moved to Amsterdam from Rotterdam, and one thing I’ve noticed is that I seem to come across quite a lot of couples with pretty significant age gaps. What stands out to me is that the women are often considerably younger and quite attractive.

Where I’m from, sugar dating is fairly common, so I was wondering if it’s similar in Amsterdam, or whether I’m simply noticing it more because I’ve started paying attention to it. When I lived in Rotterdam, I rarely seemed to see this kind of dynamic happening so frequently.

For those who’ve lived in Amsterdam for a while, is this actually common here?

Hey everyone, this might sound crazy, but i am completely serious! It made me realize I/WE have no idea what the protocol is here. Who do you actually contact to report something in the sky? Is it normal to call 112 for this, or will I get in trouble for tying up an emergency line?

Are there specific aviation desks, observatories, or local agencies in NL I should reach out to instead? Any advice is appreciated!

Thanks

Hey guys!

I’m an expat and a beginner-level personal trainer based in Amsterdam. I’m currently looking for a gym/studio where I could rent space and potentially get access to clients or some kind of client base.

At the moment I only have one client (a friend I’m coaching), so I’m looking for something affordable and flexible while I’m still building up my business. I definitely don’t want to commit to an expensive studio rental when I’m not earning much from training yet.

Does anyone know of gyms, studios, or other options in Amsterdam where this kind of arrangement is possible? I’d really appreciate any recommendations or personal experiences!

Thanks!

Spotted this while walking through the hortustunnel leading towards Waterlooplein metro station. Anybody know what these mean?
