It’s the third of the month, which can only mean one thing – it’s time for a monthly roundup of Amsterdam month 2!
Month 2 has honestly been a rather uneventful one. Apart from spending some days being sick, most of the month I was focusing on getting into the new routine of working nine to five, and still manage .. To other people this might seem a bit silly, but honestly having been in uni the past five years and only spending a few hours in class every week, it’s quite a massive change, and it definitely takes some getting used to.
Highlights
// In the beginning of August we had the Europride here in Amsterdam and it ended with a massive parade on the canals one hot summer day. Definitely one of the best street parties I’ve been to in a long time!
// After several weeks of waiting, we finally received our furniture! That means that we now finally have a bed, a couch, a dining table, and pretty much all other essentials. Now begins the fun part of decorating the apartment
Lowlights
// On the day Ollie left I was literally attacked by the flu and my face was completely covered in cold sores. In the past I’ve only tried having tiny cold sores on the lips, so this was honestly kinda scary (not to mention painful), and I couldn’t leave the house for days because my immune system was so damaged. Luckily I’m feeling great again now, but this has definitely made me want to focus more on remembering taking my vitamins, and also try to relax more after work, as it might have been caused by all the stress that comes with moving to a new city and starting a new job at the same time.
