Since I found out that the Waterlooplein market is closed on sundays, I decided to have a chill day  instead. I made pancakes for breakfast and invited Nico, Sam, Harry and some other people over but lovely Diana was the only one who came, all the other were to hungover from Nico´s birthday yesterday. haha.

Me and Diana had a great time!

I also enjoyed Justin´s jamming in the garden.

And petting “Garfield” the cat. ImageImage

But now it´s time for series. Since I finished breaking bad s05 yesterday I´m struggeling with finding new good stuff to watch. So if you guys have any suggestions, don´t hesitate to write it here!

Over and out. Cheers, Maypaj.

Shopping at Waterloopleinmarkt

Day 2:

Today I decided to buy a bike since I am going to live here for at least one year while I study a master at the UvA. So I went to the flee market in Waterlooplein to look for a functioning, half ugly bike and a good bargain. After walking a round for a while I fell in love with this blue and ramshackled bike.

My old-new blue bike.

And after bargain for a good while I got it for 45 euros even though the owner had tried to rob me for 65 euros. It was a pretty good deal since another guy had tried to sell me a lousy bike for 80 euros. So I am very satisfied!

Then I went across the street and bought a ringing bell, front- and backlight and a pink lock and got this lovely man (the owner of the shop) to install it for me. Wohoo! These netherlanders are nice!

The nice shop owner who helped me out.

I also discovered that they had smoothie and juice for only 1 euro!

Smoothie bar.Mmmm. So I bought one of those as well before I bicycled happily back to my apartment.

Yummy!

Thoughts this far: Amsterdam is awesome! Waterlooplein markt is really worth a visit if you are looking for cool old stuff and vintage clothing. Absolutely a “to do” when you are in the city. Check out http://www.waterloopleinmarkt.nl for more info.

Over and out for now! Cheers, MayPaj.
