But I digress.)⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ When hiking at these altitudes, it’s easy to get a little woozy. Even at distances you’d have literally no problem with at sea level. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I personally just notice shortness of breath, but sometimes symptoms can be gnarly/much more severe than that. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Here are the best ways to combat altitude sickness (some are easier to follow than others...

The most touristy thing I did in Amsterdam was EAS The most touristy thing I did in Amsterdam was EASILY the Heineken canal trip. 🍻 So worth it—the beer is included in the ticket price and there is not a toilet on the boat. So. You have been warned. 🍺 My main advice (besides DO IT, JUST DO IT, BOATS ARE SO FUN) is this: I don’t think there was a massive difference between the budget tours and expensive ones. I took one of the cheaper tours and had an AMAZING time. We’re all drinking Heineken anyway, I don’t need to drop 50 more euros to be on a prettier boat, thank youuuu #ballinonabudget
