I'll jump a little bit into my experience and, and why I came here.
So you said, "We're going to Kazakhstan." I was really struggling because I didn't just wanna go to Kazakhstan, but I didn't necessarily have immediate interest in going to the other stans.
I wanted to like, you know, see a destination that I've always wanted to go to.
It's got the famous, like you could smoke weed in the coffee shops and like...
I did go solo.
I think if I was there with someone else, I might have had a little bit more fun.
Someone did reach out to me in the DMs and asked if I recommend Amsterdam as a solo trip.
Yes, in a sense that it's safe, super easy to get around, but only maybe for a day or two.
Like you were saying, a stopover for a day perhaps.
I was there three days.
I think I could have done it in two, but we'll get into why.
There were some external factors that impacted my experience here.
I remember you saying as well, Kim, that there was a little weather hiccup.
I don't mean to get ahead of it, but it also prevented you from doing a couple things that you really wanted to do just as well.
So, and more particularly the beach day, which I know you'll touch base upon further on in the episode.
But I don't disagree with you.
I think from what I can remember of our Amsterdam trip, I think it would be better to do it with somebody or with a group of people.
Yes, solo, I agree with what you said on that front, but I think Amsterdam lends itself to be a group trip or with a significant other.
Definitely.
It is the capital city of the Netherlands.
It is famous for its beautiful canal system, boats along the canals.
It's got a lot of beautiful flora and fauna and flowers all over the city that make it really pretty.
