Well we have now moved to our new apartment here in Amsterdam and I have to say that it is much better than the old one!  We have moved right into the centre of the city and our apartment sits on a really pretty canal.  We are only 5 minutes from Dam Square and 5 minutes from the Jordaan area which is full of little shops and cafe (not those sort of cafes!)

 

The apartment is pretty standard but it works for us and I feel much safer being on the first floor.

 

Our landlord is an older guy who is a sculpture artist and as such, the apartment has lots of artwork from his friends and collections on the walls.  I almost feel I should hold a gallery night but I think I am more interested in serving champagne and canapes rather than try to talk intelligently about the art itself!

 

The location is perfect and we have a spare bedroom so room for visitors too!
