you wont have to look around at all. theres hundereds of coffeeshops all over amsterdam. I so one the second I got off the train from belgium. At some of the coffeeshops there are even maps they hand out that pinpoint all the coffeeshops to you. theres trams everywhere so travel is easy, and everyone speaks english. dont forget to visit the cannabis museum and the cannibis gardens. they arnt much, but you get to ask the growers questions. some places to visit are barney's coffeeshop, that serve breakfast all day, and try their morninglory weed. I belive it won in the last cannabis cup. if you like hash, I suggest bluebirds coffeeshop. they have a wide selection and the staff is always friendly. grasshoppers has a retuarant obove them they own, and I loved their bubblegum. another coffeeshop that is a must is grey area. its a small shithole, however the owners are american and cool, and ther cheap and upfront with their herb. great selection, and I loved their grey mist kief. sprincked it over all my joints there. also remember to buy something exept for herb in the coffeeshops if you want to chill. just for politeness. you can also bring your own herb into cofeeshops and smoke it if you sit down and order something. people there are pretty relaxed and it sure is a great time. I suggest the trip is worth it. and the herb is great. the hash is amazing.
