My Day Out

Sorry I've been so MIA recently! I had school exam stress and then I became severely ill and I literally couldn't move for a week. But I'm all better now and to celebrate that I decided that me and Louise should go to Amsterdam for the day and just eat. Sounds like a solid plan right?!

I do really love Amsterdam. We decided to go to a breakfast/lunch cafe in the 9 streets, called Nielsen and oh em gee, I had the most amazing sandwich ever. Warning: foodgasm ahead.



I mean, look at this piece of art. And it was amazing! I had the chicken, bacon, avocado and mayo sandwich. Lemme tell ya; just when you think it can't get better - they add bacon. I mean... I can't even describe it. Let's just say that it was very quiet at the table when we had our sandwiches, haha. Definitely recommend this cafe if someone is thinking of going to Amsterdam and wants to find something for lunch. Delicious! After that we perused around the 9 streets for a bit and decided that it was tea time. And with tea time comes cake. I mean, rule number 1 of tea time right?! So we went to Pompadour (also in the 9 streets) and I had the most delicious chocolate cake ever. (And I am very picky with my chocolate cake.)




nomnomnom...

We then decided to walk back to central station where we would both get our own train and go home. Luckily Amsterdam is not so big so we were able to walk for a while when...




Hello book market! I forgot that it was a Friday and Friday's are usually the time where 'het Spui' in Amsterdam has its little book market. Now I am a sucker for books and when they are cheap, I go a bit loco. Luckily I didn't buy any books but I did buy something incredible which I will show you soon (oh, such a tease!). Spoiler: it's not a book. Excitement right?!

To round it off: I am very sorry for leaving my blog for a whole month (sorry blog!) but I just needed some time to get heathly and get through the stress that is graduating. Luckily I passed my final exam which means I am now celebrating my well deserved summer holiday. Hooray for me!

Have a good week y'all! :)
