Prinseneiland is a nice small street, well hidden on the island with the same name. I discovered it by chance, when I went to this quiet, almost tourist-free area to take pictures of the interesting boats that can be found there. I was pleasantly surprised to see the beautiful houses with red (and sometimes black) shutters covering all windows and doors.

This will have to be decided based on that day’s cra…

This is the spot where the yellow submarine is anchored and it was my favourite lunch spot for years, when I used to work close by. When I wanted to be alone and have a break from my colleagues, I would take my lunch and…
Read MoreAfter a glorious, sunny start of the day, a dense fog covered the city in the afternoon. Amsterdam in the fog is simply beautiful. I left work earlier and went for a walk around some of my favourite places in this city: Westelijke Eilanden and Oude Houthaven.
