when visiting anywere for a short period you are nearly allways made wellcome,I think it is when or if you are going there for good that you are seen as a thret to jobs living space family and all the rest of it after all we fought a world war to stop the germans ruling the british
I love Amsterdam and have been anout 7 times. People think about only one thing when you mention the city. I go for the culture, atmoshere and architecture. The museums are brilliant and the range of food fab. The Dutch are really nice people and very helpful. I love to go in the spring and walk through the Vondel park and sit eating lunch by the Rembrant museum. You really have to make at least one visit if you have never been before. I cannot say enough about this wonderful and vibrant city.
p.s. legalise cannabis :)
