im glad this thread is positive. im tired of all the haters telling people not to go to amsterdam because its trendy, or a tourist trap or 'the weed isnt the best' or whatever else.

thats all bullshit.

amsterdam is a beautiful, fun and exciting city. if you are at all interested in marijuana, spend a few days there. everyone i met there was pleasant and helpful. they met my american tourist ass with unparalleled kindness and i never felt unsafe or mistreated there for even a second. the smoke was top notch - anyone who says otherwise is just flailing their e-penis around for an audience. if you are respectful, responsible and self-aware you will have a fun time in amsterdam.
