Two days ago I moved to my new room on a house boat next to the Amstel. It’s a two storied boat which I share with three other guys. Three of us (including me) are living in the basement. That means that I sleep approximately 1.5 meter below the water line. On the first floor we have a room which is a combination of kitchen, dining room and living room. Furthermore we have a little terrace which we will fill with sand next week. Well, than we’ll have out personal beach next to the Amstel.

Day after day the same procedure. Tourists that pass my room in the center suddenly stop. Next they muzzle in their jackets or bags. Then, finally they find what they were looking for: A city map of Amsterdam. But even with the city map it looks hard to navigate for some of them. In most of their faces I can read: “Where the hell are we?”. Of course I cannot do that, but sometimes I want to open my window and scream out loud: “Hey dudes, may I help you? What are you looking for?”.
