Time has come and I've done another
short trip across the channel to the Netherlands, this time to the city called
Amsterdam. Usually when doing a bit of research for trips I check online on
wiki travel, it has all the basics I need. All remaining information I gather from friends like places to go and food to
try. I pretty much gave up on lonely planet, it looked more and more like a
waste of money as I was barely using it on trips. Surely it is handy, but in
today’s time pointless as all the information are available online and with
Wifi around everywhere it is as well accessible at any time. Here I don't even
care about having a map. If I do need one, they are usually available in the
hostels or tourist information centre. But who knows, maybe one day I get all
nervous again without a map.
