Travel Throwback Series – Amsterdam Part 2

Many people asked me why Amsterdam is one of the places I like the most. As cliche as it sounds, the reasons why I love Amsterdam so much simply because of its delicious food, wonderful people and how beautiful it is.

Meeting a cute furry friend was a big surprise of my trip – honestly,  not all cats are friendly to strangers but I was fortunate enough to meet this cutie pie. He acted like we’ve been friends forever allowing me to massage him, play with him, take pictures with him…He was happy with whatever I did. 🙂

Although cats have always been the love of my life, delicious food definitely holds a special place in my heart. How can you resist the temptation when they are trying to seduce you? lol 😛

Wandering around the city, I realized the charm Amsterdam has isn’t only its beauty but also how much it can change. At some busy spots, you will see people busy running errands. At the touristy areas, you will see people are busy striking a pose for photos. What I found amusing the most was the time when walking pass “I amsterdam” letters, people went crazy climbing up and down the letters just to show how cool they looked in photos.

After having seen the busy side of Amsterdam, I didn’t expect it to become all quiet and serene just few blocks down the road. With the scene of serene and light breeze, I immediately closed my eyes to enjoy the moment. That peaceful moment sat deep in my heart gently wiping all my worries away.

With peace of mind, I continued to wander. There I found a rapid change in Amsterdam again. From it was all quiet and serene to a vibrant city. Hot pink roses were at full bloom while green leaves turned luscious green. Flags of different countries were not only hung to show respect, but also revealed the vibrancy of each country.

After exploring the city continuously, the sun started to set. It was the time when the romantic vibes started to emerge as well.

The true romance emerged in the dark with beautiful lights being reflected in the river.

Under the romantic atmosphere and with the help of cupid, the couple couldn’t care less about the thoughts of others…kissing passionately…Me as a witness could only be a jealous girl with the wish of same wonder happened on me. Unfortunately, nothing happened. 😦

Without the help of cupid, I could only treat myself to have some ice-cream 😛 I was having the ice-cream with my heart and soul just to take my bitterness away.

Voila! Instantly became a happy Khloe (you can never underestimate the magic of dessert) lol 😀

        I don’t have many pictures here and it makes me sad… When I want to post some traveling pictures, I have to ask my brother to take a picture of them, or scan them for me… And the digital pictures I have, they are spread in all the computers, I don’t even know where… It’s not good being so messy!! 🙂

  3. Those are always the best reasons to love a place “delicious food, wonderful people and how beautiful it is” and maybe you should also add ‘they have beautiful cats too!’ as it seems to be very important to your heart as well. Great photos and yes, a very romantic atmosphere but I think you definitely chose the right thing with the ice-cream 🙂
