Slip on your wooden shoes, grab your stroopwafles, and call up your Opa because I wrote another article for Darling Magazine--and this time, its all about Amsterdam!
“Where the broad ocean leans against the land,” (Oliver Goldsmith) you’ll find a place stacked tall with narrow living, a maze of canals, and a bustling of residents dreamily riding bicycles with high handlebars. Some still call it Holland. But the names printed on maps know it as The Netherlands—and this city, Amsterdam. To visit this city below the sea is to experience a culture rich in architecture, art, and history. With 17th century neighborhoods, to markings of Van Gogh’s starry night, to memoirs of Anne Frank, to a city brimming with bikes and delicious waffles, to outskirts so green with mighty windmills and Dutch traditions, Amsterdam is yet another place to mark on your map of adventures.
You can read the article Bikes, Waffles, and Van Gogh at Darling Magazine Online where its posted in full--over here. Want to read more of what I've been contributing over at Darling?
