Hi guys,

Last year I worked on a design project with my girlfriend called 'Rotterdam Told by People', a set of mirrors based on people's stories and experiences in Rotterdam. We interviewed a whole bunch of them about the Dutch city.

We've been planning to expand the project, so we decided to submit it for a competition. However, we couldn't submit Rotterdam, so we picked Amsterdam instead. Rather than doing the interviews one-on-one, we put them in a short questionnaire, allowing us to reach a lot more people. :)

And this is where I need your help. Have you ever visited or lived in Amsterdam? If so, what are your experiences and thoughts on the city? And could you tell me about them?

You can find the questionnaire here. No worries, this little trip down memory lane will take only 15-20 minutes!

Thank you for your time! :D

Been to Amsterdam just once and that too for 2 days (a weekend). Had a couple of places I wanted to visit but the time just wasn't enough.. ended up going to just the Central Library (both me and my husband are avid book-lovers so this just had to be number one on our list) and then the Anne Frank House (this, especially, is a must-visit). And then before we knew it, the trip was over  :(
You can't have everything; where would you put it?
