    Hi, I live in the Netherlands too, but I know close to nothing about Amsterdam.
    If you have questions about other parts of the Netherlands, feel free to ask too.
    I might or might not be able to help out.

    Love, bird.

    Nee, ik post gewoon heel veel.
    Alleen meestal niet hier of op de andere Nederlandse fora, omdat daar meestal niks te beleven is.
    Ik woon zelf in de buurt van Eindhoven. Lang leve het zonnige zuiden!
    Je bent toch wel Nederlands en/of je kunt Nederlands lezen anders dan heb ik alles voor niks ingetypt natuurlijk....

    Uiteraard kan ik nederlands :) But since this particulair forum is english-based, I prefer that language. Soo.. what you are saying is that you post well over a 100 posts just in the last couple of days? That's a - lot :)

    Fair enough, I will type in English too then.
    Yes I did post quite a lot, but most of them are very helpful and some of them includes games.
    Also when I try to type Dutch here I betrap mezelf erop dat ik a little bit in English denk.
    Pretty fucked up, but it might be because I write more in English than in Dutch....
    I do not have that problem when I speak though.

    yeah.. I know the feeling.. my whole 'online life' is pretty much in english and also some rl friends of mine are english-speaking.. so english has become second nature for me.. I do think in english sometimes, but my dreams are still in Dutch. Had a dream in French once.. but since I don't speak French I didn't really understand it.. :)

Are you close to Oud Zuid, thats where our International students stay, we love Beers in Vondelpark and late night parties so you have to take the morning metro. drop me aline, would live to meet a sexy dutch woman, the girls here are unbelievable, high boots, short skirts, and then they ride there bikes..... Drop me one at runamsterdam@yahoo.com.... AJ( andrew jason)

    Hey ;)

    I'm a university student in Nijmegen, but I do know the area Oud Zuid a little.. as I said, I'm in Amsterdam a lot. I hate to dissapoint you, but I don't wear short skirts and high boots.. I wear pants with big flares and comfortable shoes ;) And even when I did dress like you said, I don't think my boyfriend would like me to meet up with someone how's looking for a hot Dutch girl ;)

    Sooo.. what made you come from NY to Amsterdam? The city I presume?

    International business concentration for my BS degree. Amsterdam is central in both gegraphically and the diversity here really makes for a true Interntional experience. Well your boyfriend will be here when I am gone,so you can always have him, I'm a limited edition...... a side salad wouldn't hurt a bit.... drop me one, ciao

    I try to stay away as much from Eindhoven as possible.
    You can do a lot of things in Eindhoven, it really depends on your interests.

    Well Im on a tight budget...and the public transport here its insanely expensive..so I dont really have the luxury to freely buz around...thats why bikes are so great!!!! Thats one thing I love about this place..bikes!! Well Eindhoven doesnt really have that big of a music scene, it seems that even the local bands always go to Tilburg or some place like that (yeah music is my interest I guess) any suggestions ??

    (just re-registered with a new name - not sure if I like the color scheme, yet. but i'll deal! :))

    I'm going to hijack this thread a bit... I will be buying a 1-2 month Eurail pass and will be travelling throughout Europe in june-july. I have only been to Europe once (Amsterdam) but would definitely like to see more of the Netherlands over the summer. Can any of you recommend places to go in the Netherlands besides the Dam?
