Hey folks,

I am here in amsterdam now for almoost three weeks and i have to say its really cool. Amsterdam is such a great city. The people are so fiendly, the students on the boat, the working colleagues, local people on the streets and even the bus- and tramdrivers are really convienient people.
Also the weather right now is incredible. Usually at this time it is supposed to rain all the days. But actually it doesn’t and thats why everyone here in amsterdam is happy and in good mood. Here you can see the next days compared to austria:

In compare to my erasmus semester in finland i need to say that here is not that much party and activity. Most of the people on the boat are interns as well and so you can imagine that everyone needs to get up quite earlyd uring the week. In my case its 07:30 am to get up in the morning, if i want to take a shower ;). Then it is about 20 minutes by bike to my office.
By the way, bike! Last week i bought the most important “thing” a “dutch” person needs - a bike. You are kind of “noOne” here in amsterdam without a bike ;-). I was really lucky with my new aquisition. I got a very good conditioned mountain-bike from a german bike retailer. See it in action in front of my office and my workingplace @ the office:

Last weekend we had our first party at the boat. It was a barbequeue party on the deck around the pool. Unfortunatly the pool is already closed but “whooo caaares!!!”. After that we went to a small club in westerpark close to the boat.
