a mini town



In De Haugue you can visit the smallest city in Europe, or what looks like the most gigantic backpackers in Europe.

the flying pig



In the heart of Amsterdam there's a great hostel called the flying pig. There's a lot I can't mention that goes on in the bar downstairs. Every young traveler should pay a visit here or stay here for that matter. And if you stay long enough you will see pigs fly. I know I did.

Amsterdam Hostels

At anytime during the day, you can find travelers sleeping in their hostel beds. At 3 in the afternoon I came in to replace my battery and I found these travelers sleeping. Then at 4 I came back to get a new tape and they were gone. The same travelers returned at 9 PM and were fast asleep again.

Before hitting the coffee shops I decided to check out the Heineken brewery for the day. They were giving me a free tour that day and I felt so special. They took me all the way to the end and I used the tickets for all the free beer I wanted. After that I didn't remember much else. That beer was really strong, especially in large quantities.
