well i am just a little weary because i've just turned 18 so i am a little nervous going on my own and etc, i just want to basically have a good time, get stoned, buy lots of weed and space cakes etc. hope this treat don't sound too dumb to you novice people but help will be much appriciated.

thanks alot

Ok man, I am American, and I have been to Amsterdam 7 fucking times, get ready for the time of ur life!! If u want a cheap Hotel, don't worry, when u get off the train there will be certain people waiting for all the backpackers and giving them flyers about cheap hotels and hostels, so this should be no prob. If u ask the clerk about coffeeshops nearby they will tell u. Whenever I went to amsterdam from england, I would fly Easy Jet.U said u were weary cause it's ur first time, It is one FUCKED UP place there is fucking people everywhere i mean hundreds of thousands of people. Also u have people in the red light district coming to u to sell drugs like crazy. And when it gets dark don't freak out, but the number of prostitutes is fucking amazing, the first time I went to the red light district and saw all the prostitutes and drug addicts doing deals right in front of u and harassing u to buy some drugs honestly it scared the fuck out of me. Me and my girlfriend ran to the nearest coffeeshop and posted up there for hours. It is a crazy world in Amsterdam, but I kept going back, But hope I have helped u man, and have a great time. but be aware, and be careful.
