Though 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 PostAmsterdam is one of my favorite places in the world. The city is downright charming, and there are endless things to see and do.
