Just Amsterdam being Amsterdam 🌼 • Off to work now with the leftovers of last night's migraine attack that saw me in bed by 9pm😫 Tips for a speedy recovery are welcome (monetary tips also welcome)
Trying to think of a meaningful caption, like something feminist or empowering, maybe even an inspirational quote, but all I can think of is the puke in the bottom left corner of the second photo and my non-existing eyes 😂 • Anyway, how have you been? I'm back from Dublin, which was amazing, as you may have seen in my stories. More specifically, the Westlife concert was a wet dream come true 😝 • Photo by the lovely @remamberr from the King's Day weekend in the 'Dam
These houses and people on bikes = Amsterdam in a nutshell🇱🇺 • How do you prefer to get around when traveling? I usually walk more than anything, but had a terrible habit of using Uber in LA and Thailand. In Amsterdam, however, I walked approx 12 km a day 🚶🏼‍♀️
Tulips definitely aren't in season anymore, but nothing screams the Netherlands more than these flowers - and especially orange ones, so I couldn't NOT take a photo and post them! Although flowers are pretty to look at and giving them is a famous gesture of showing affection, did you know that the flower industry is rather unsustainable as well as unethical to workers? • @forageandsustain has written a post about why the cut flower industry is problematic, and it has definitely made me think twice about buying them again. • The downsides are: ✖️The huge environmental footprint when it comes to transportation across countries and the refrigerated trucks to keep the flowers alive ✖️The flowers are covered in toxic chemicals to ensure they survive the journey, and to make them grow faster ✖️The ethics in the flower industry in Latin America are pretty horrendous, and the women workers are subject to low pay, poor working conditions, long hours, and toxic chemicals (many suffer from lung problems and reproductive issues) • Ways in which you can do better are: ✔️Buy local flowers that are in bloom this time of year ✔️Choose a potted plant over a cut bunch that will die • All information comes from @forageandsustain 🌷
I had to delete this because govisitdenmark shared one of my pictures and I wanted my grid to look a certain way if people visited my account 😂 ANYWAY, here we go again: • Kicking off my Amsterdam pics (finally) with some Wisteria love 💜 • Back in April, I went to visit @remamberr, who I met at the Elephant Nature Park in Thailand in February. Her room was next to mine, and almost every night she'd come over and ask me to braid her hair, while we shared stories. She's just the sweetest girl, and although she's 10 years younger than me, we instantly connected. • While traveling is most often about seeing other countries, it's also about meeting and connecting with other people, and that's one of the things I love the most about it.
OK, last castle for a while now 🏰 • I haven't checked Instagram in 3 days, as I've been busy contemplating my whole existence, but I've caught up with most new posts, I think 🙈 • If you have any tips or links on how and where to find a job overseas, feel free to message me! Primarily considering Canada 👀 • @govisitdenmark
