Have such a great time! I just want to let you know that the ice skating rink won't be on Museumplein this year 😕 But there are so many ways to have a fun trip, that you probably won't miss it!

Amsterdam looks quite festive around the holidays! The boat cruise with all the lights looks so amazing and peaceful! One of my favorite things to check out around this time of the year is to check out all the Christmas lights! Awesome video!

Hi! Thanks so much! ❤

I've been subscribed to your channel for a while now and I really enjoy your cheerful demeanor and positivity (I can't believe this channel doesn't have more subscribers). As a Dutchman (from The Hague myself) I'm always interested in how expats experience our tiny country and it's fun to see what other cities are up to during the holidays. The light art looks awesome. Thanks for sharing!

Dankjewel! I adore this country and will be exploring more 😊 I really appreciate your sub but also your comment. It's always a bit scary to showcase somewhere knowing that I'm not native. If you haven't caught them yet, check out the Laag Holland videos--you might like those. Such a great area that I got to explore in unique ways.

Hi Jess, I just discovered your channel from your Peak Design 5L sling. I love it! In particular, your audio is soooo good. Something I need to work on. Is most of the audio from your Wireless Go, or are you just using the Rode video micro?

Hi there! Yes, the Wireless Go is my go-to mic. I have the Micro in case anything happens to the Go, or if it's in a different setting and it's not just me speaking. It's completely changed my confidence with audio!

My one and only time in Amsterdam was December 2004. We did a canal cruise but I don’t remember there being a light festival. What our tour guide did say which I always wanted to fact check was that it is very common for Dutch people to keep their curtains open at night and to not worry about people seeing them in their homes. Is that true?

@aWanderlustForLife

2 жыл бұрын

True. Many have a frosted privacy strip but i think that more the younger people. Our sheer curtains are common too. But I remember one night Sean got home and was shocked because he walked by a window and accidently saw a, ummm, VERY intimate moment with completely naked people.

Which boat company did you use, it looks fantastic - our kids are soo excited to come from Australia after watching your video. Thank you

My family and I will be arriving on Christmas Day morning and will depart the next day to Portugal, so we have quite many hours to spend on Christmas day. We will be staying near airport and thinking to go to Centraal but just a bit afraid that nothing is open. Any suggestion what would be best to do?
