Amsterdam, The Netherlands: The Hub of Europe - May 2014

All flights lead to Amsterdam ... or at least that's what it feels like. Both James and I have navigated through Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport numerous times over the last 18 months and will surely be through it many more in the upcoming years.

If one is fortunate enough to leave the massive fortress that is the Amsterdam airport, the city is a delight. Amsterdam boasts a number of attractions including its historic canals, the Van Gogh Museum, Anne Frank House ... and, of course, it would be a sin to visit the city without checking out the Red Light District and its many unique coffee shops.
