ADE festival is only one week away and that means you either take it very easy this weekend or you’re going out just like every other weekend. Because we already know: with all the fun activities in Amsterdam the temptation is very strong. There are just so many fun things to do every weekend! For example, here’s the Shelter Test Night this Friday or how about the Sunday brunch at Bar Kauffman? In the meanwhile I’m enjoying every second of Hong Kong and the Philippines, where I am to make new city guides for you! But yes, I have to admit, I sure miss Amsterdam. Read on to discover the best things to do in the Amsterdam Weekend Guide! >>
