Amsterdam Meetup Part 2
Hello everyone! Last year we had a mini meetup in Chicago. It was brought up that people would be interested in a larger and more global meetup. I started a thread to gauge the interest and it seems that a lot of you are definitely interested in it.
After reading through responses, as well as personal messages, it seems to me that the end of July is probably the best time for us to be able to get together. For those of you who are new and/or didn’t read that thread, the meetup will take place in Amsterdam.
In my last survey, I had 12 people say that they needed a babysitter. I will not be your babysitter. You will need to find a buddy that will stick with you throughout your time. I will start a discord server soon that will have a channel just for that purpose. Caution: your buddy will be required to stay with you even if/when you enter the red light district so choose your buddy with care.
Most people seem to want to stay for around 5 days. I’ve been looking at houses that can be rented, as well as renting out an entire hostel. For example, this place is pretty badass, but it’s now only available July 23 (Monday) - July 27 (Friday) Then there’s this whole hostel, and of course, we can try to book for our group at places like this. This site is also pretty good.
Please take this survey if you're planning to meet up with us. Thank you for your time.

Re: Amsterdam Meetup Part 2
I guess I could fly to Brussels, hang out with my friend there for a couple of days, get on a train to Amsterdam, get wasted for 4-5 days and then take a train to CPH and pick up my girls.
Many things would have to align though.

Re: Amsterdam Meetup Part 2
What if I can't convince a fellow Basement player to go? Depending on what kind of time I'll have available I'm thinking I might do this for just a couple of days and not the entire time.

Re: Amsterdam Meetup Part 2
I'd love to meet most of you. I'll be on vacation from July 23rd to August 6th so I hope I'll be home during the meetup. I understand that you can't accommodate to everyone's vacations but I hope we can reconsider the end of July together
I can't host anyone as I still live with my parents. Looking forward to @momuuu and @MCJim !

There are so many interesting stories that could be told about Amsterdam.
tips: dont go to the red light district or the sex museum.
never buy anything dodgy on the street.
Do visit the Rijksmuseum or a banana bar. https://www.tripadvisor.co.za/ShowUserR ... vince.html
Do go to the Puri Mas Indonesian restaurant RIJSTTAFEL SPECIAAL
€ 22,50 per persoon/per person - preferred restaurant recommendation of all 5 star hotels ( Marriott/ Kraz/ golden Tulip) http://www.purimas.nl/pages/en/welcome.php
Bring some vitamine C pills 500mg for when u get too high.

I cant accompany you cuz my summer recess starts on July 4th. (I'll b 2 hi.)

Update: by wild fucking coincidence my connecting flight to Africa, a trip planned so, so long ago, goes through Amersterdam also in late July. I could fly up earlier and still make that connection...

I'd be probably assaulted by a hater during night so I think it's safer to miss this one.
