Experience
Overall, my experince in Amsterdam was amazing. This was the first time I went out of the country, and I would highly recommend it if you are unsure about traveling somewhere foreign. Everything was so easy to understand because everything is translated into English and almost everyone speaks it too. There is also so much to do day and night that you will never be left wondering what to do! During the day, shop, explore, and eat and during the night hang out with friends and even take a nice canal ride.
