    We moved to Amsterdam over a year ago now, so it's about time we show you our lovely little rental flat we had such a hard time finding! We have been living in this apartment last August, it was unfurnished when we moved in so we also wanted to show you how we decided to decorate it, what furniture we decided on and what dutch interior design and home goods/furniture websites we used.
    Apartment hunting in Amsterdam: • AMSTERDAM Apartment Hu...
    Sites we used to find vintage and second hand furniture in the Netherlands:
    www.whoppah.com/
    www.reliving.nl/

    We hope you enjoyed this tour!

    Woo - it's been a while! Life without lockdown is far too distracting ;) A lot of you have been asking for it, so here it is - our Amsterdam apartment tour! Check out the description for links to the sites we mainly used to find vintage and second hand furniture and other great stuff :) Up next we'll be publishing our Amsterdam LGBTQ nightlife tour - can't wait to share it with you!

    That's a beautiful apartment! I know how hard it is to find a place in Amsterdam and sharing how stressful it was is totally valid. However, when saying that finding an apartment like this was 'pain and suffering' it would also be good to recognize what a privilege it is to be able to afford and get an apartment like this at all. So many people (especially people of colour) that were born in amsterdam are forced out of the city because they can't afford a place at all. People are forced out of their houses, so they can be renovated into super expensive appartments. Of course this doesn't meand at all that you don't deserve this or that you can't be happy about your place, but it's always good to be aware of our privileges.

      I think you are looking to much into the situation & are projecting. I don’t think they meant to hurt anyone, they were simply expressing their feelings.

    Lovely apartment! As solution for the bathroom door, maybe hang a curtain so guests can choose to close it? Either in the windows or infront of the door?(Maybe not on the bathroom side as that space gets moist so prone to moulding fabrics)
    Edit: I now see you’ve moved since this video haha

    Hi! The place is gorgggggg. If you don’t mind me asking how long do you plan on staying in amsterdam? My husband and I are trying to decide if we want to look for an unfurnished or a furnished place.
    On one hand it’s very nice to have your own furniture/ touches, but I wonder if we’re only there for 1-2 years if it’s worth investing in furniture 🤔 we’re from the US!

    I'm living in Amsterdam too. Those pigeons are terrible! Get some spikes-on-a-board (at a hardwarestore) or use netting and create some sort of 'netting porch' on high sticks or so. And you probably need to get your neighbours involved too (which is not always fun or easy, I know). Really annoying creatures, those flying rats! Tot ziens! Doei! (See you! Bye!)
