There’s something so satisfying about recommending a favorite restaurant to someone and hearing about their positive experience afterward. We often get asked by friends and family visiting Amsterdam for our favorite restaurants in the city, and have always pointed them to our Amsterdam Travel Guide. This time, we decided this topic deserved it’s own post. So, we’ve compiled our favorite…
Read the PostThough we’re rarely home in Amsterdam for months at a time, I still feel a sense of relief every time we return. The first thing we always do is open our windows to our front balcony (as long as it’s not raining!), sit outside and watch the canals. I’ve fallen more in love with living in this city than I…
Read the PostOver the weekend Amsterdam’s canals froze over and it was one of the most amazing sights we’ve ever seen. To give you an idea of how rare this is, the last time it happened was over 6 years ago! The Dutch don’t hesitate to take advantage of an opportunity to ice skate. The first day people were on the ice,…
Read the PostAmsterdam is one of my favorite places in the world. The city is downright charming, and there are endless things to see and do.

For starters — my father is Dutch, so The Netherlands is one of the first European countries I visited as a child. It leaves a lasting impression: the quaint cobblestone streets, smells of…
Read the PostThe end of the year snuck up on me more than I’d like to admit. I typically use the holiday season to reflect on the past year, get inspired for what’s to come, and set personal goals. Instead, these past couple weeks I set aside my growing to-do list and obligations and opted to relax (as well as fight off…
Read the PostI’ve often found that picking out camera gear can be daunting. There are so many options out there for cameras, lenses, and photo accessories. Jacob and I are always trying to find ways to simplify the set up we’re using and make our camera bags lighter. While we own and use a variety of camera gear for different scenarios —…
Read the PostIf there’s one thing I’ve learned about myself after living in Europe, it’s that I can’t pass up a trip to the Christmas Markets. I have yet to find a Christmas Market I love more than the ones in Germany, and the ones in Cologne are at the top of that list. Cologne is also one of the first cities…
