Hey guys and welcome to a few summer days in Amsterdam with my mum. This vlog is basically our little 4-day city break: checking back into the exact same hotel room we stayed in four years ago (what a coincidence), walking around the city center, shopping, and—most importantly—trying a lot of matcha. Wherever I go, the first thing I look for is a good matcha, and I genuinely ventured out in the rain to fix a “really bad” first matcha situation because I need my daily. Along the way, I share some of the small moments I love about travel: finding a hidden leather goods store and randomly discovering a new pair of loafers, swapping into a new t-shirt immediately because it got so warm, and just sitting at a sidewalk café for a simple lunch. I also show a bit of the hotel gym (small but honestly has everything), and we take a walk in Vondelpark—my feet were buzzing afterwards, but it was so nice seeing everyone outside enjoying the weather. And then a little life update: I’ve applied for uni again. I applied for an online bachelor in marketing (2 years) and Japan Studies at the University of Copenhagen (4 years, physical attendance). While we wait for the answer, I’m also booking my Japan flights because I’ll be going for about one and a half months to run the Tokyo half marathon and see what it’s like to live and study in Japan at the same time.
