A Tolerant Country... Holland!

I don't even know where to begin...

Freewheeling nature is how I would describe Amsterdam. Holland is known for its coffee shops, the Red light district, it was the first country to legalized same-sex marriages and euthanasia. the windmills, the tullips, the canals, bicycles and much much more...

Amsterdam seems to be a city where anything is possible. where people have no boundaries, no laws  and are free to choose among the things that in most parts of the World are viewed as taboos. This is because the dutch  think it will happen anyway so they legalise it.
 "The logic is simple – tolerate it, rather than prohibit it and subsequently lose control"DutchAmsterdam.nl

It was pretty shocking to see the red light district for the first time, without been judgmental I coulden't help to wonder how this women end up there. the city is pretty because of the canals, but it is a bit messy and crowded in my opinion, there are so many sex-shops and coffee shops which creates the environment of the Freewheeling nature.




I noticed how beautiful holland is after visiting the windmills, the weather was perfect. I feel like I was able to capture the culture of holland in the windmills because everything seemed so  dutch, the flags, the people and the music.

Queen's Day the world’s largest street party!

we spend the day exploring the city, finding random small concerts, eating in the streets, riding the carneval games, and just enjoying the day. we even got on boat. there are celebrations throughout the Netherlands, free- markets, orange, and concerts are some words that define the day.




visit Keukenhof Holland, georgeous tulips. http://www.keukenhof.nl/en/ it is a beautiful park filled with so much color and people, the environment seems very artistic. we've spend most of our last afternoon in Holland there, amused by little kids playing in the park and realizing what a difference flowers make in any environment.

There is much of Amsterdam/Holland left to see but we managed to visit the Van Gogh Museum, and saw the I Amsterdam sign, next time I have to ride a bicycle through out the city. I leave Amsterdame entertained, Now that I have visited the most liberal country in the World and experienced the largest orange street party!
