From Trini to Amsterdam

Dinner time on the plane from New York to London

Within a week I had flown from Trinidad to New York to London to Amsterdam. On paper it sounded fabulous, easy even, like I was a glamorous jet setter going from point A to B. (I pictured a fresh faced Rihanna arriving at an exotic location camera ready and put together). In actuality by the time I arrived in Amsterdam I felt tired and my internal clock was utterly confused. My back ached from my failed attempt to pack light and I wouldn’t call my look glamorous at that point! With hardly any time for sleep I excitedly threw myself into a world wind of activities from walking around in the cold trying to find where Verse iTal’s gigs were to sightseeing. Sleep or no sleep I am enjoying Amsterdam and I am ready to share it with you all. Have any of you been to Amsterdam? What should I check out? Giving thanks for another opportunity to travel! Peace, Love & Joy!

  3. I love Amsterdam- u feel so free and unrestricted! I loved the street lights- yes random! but they had such a unique design...its like someone cared about lighting the street in style as opposed to just putting a pole and a bulb... it is such a cool feature that brought sooo much character to the city.... So go find some street lights and look at them!lol

  4. You are a jet setter. I don't think it"s 100% glam even for the big timers in first class - they just need to pretend since they paid so much. Have a great time over there both you and Verse. Through the music scene, you should get a look at how actual Dutch live. Lots of Love from your Iowa family!
