In the centre of Amsterdam, in the museum quarter, you will find Michele’s Houseboat. A brand new houseboat moored at the Ruysdaelkade, where you can experience Amsterdam in a unique way: living on the water. The houseboat is divided into three apartments, one large one where I live myself with my boyfriend Nils, and two smaller apartments where you can enjoy your holidays or business trip in Amst

erdam! Each of the apartments has their own private entrance, en-suite bathroom, and a large double bed that can be made up for either a couple or two singles. All guests have access to the large roof terrace where one can eat, drink, laugh, bbq or tan! You could book both of the apartments together or one apartment just let me know what you prefer!

This September in Amsterdam 🍂

Six things worth your time this month, save it for later.

🎭 Amsterdam Fringe Festival (3-13 Sept, across the city)
Eleven days, roughly 22 venues from Noord to Zuid, packed with independent theatre, dance, and performance from artists you’ve never heard of yet. This is the one where you stumble into a show in someone’s backyard and leave talking about it for a week.

🍷 Amsterdam W**e Festival (4-6 Sept, Amstelpark)
First open-air edition at Amstelpark. Three days of tastings from around the world, live music, and food pairings scattered through the park. Bring a tote bag for the bottles you’ll inevitably buy.

🏊 Amsterdam City Swim (6 Sept, Nieuwe Herengracht to Keizersgracht)
Thousands take on the canals in a charity swim raising funds for ALS research. Watching from a bridge is a whole vibe on its own if swimming isn’t your thing.

🏛️ Open Monumentendag (12-13 Sept, across Amsterdam)
Free access to historic buildings normally closed to the public, from private canal houses to churches and old guild halls. The weekend to finally see what’s behind those doors you walk past every day.

🏃 Dam tot Damloop (19-20 Sept, Amsterdam to Zaandam)
One of the Netherlands’ most iconic road races, taking thousands of runners from Dam Square, under the IJ, and into Zaandam. Even if you’re not racing, the finish-line energy is worth showing up for.

🛍️ IJ-Hallen Flea Market (19-20 Sept, NDSM-werf)
Europe’s biggest flea market. Vintage clothes, furniture, records, things you didn’t know you needed, right on the industrial NDSM wharf. Go early, go hungry.

Save this post!

You forget the window is a window. Then a boat goes past.

The canal is doing its slow morning shuffle. A saloon boat slides past, off to be somewhere better.

Whatever this week asks of you - start small. Start anyway.

And September lands tomorrow. May it arrive gently, may it bring good things, and may one of them be a trip to Amsterdam. Our boats are waiting.

August packed its bags while we weren’t looking. Long light on the water, dinners that ran past midnight, that one swim we still talk about. September can wait outside a little longer.

How was your August?

Most people come to Amsterdam for the sights. But there’s another Amsterdam that lives underneath. The one where you wake up on the houseboat with sunlight striping the duvet, where a quiet book becomes your entire afternoon, where the canal becomes your backyard and you stop needing the city altogether.

It’s what happens when you’re tired of walking. When the stroopwafels and the crowds fade and all you want is this: time moving slowly, striped linen, sunglasses collecting dust on the bed, the gentle sound of water against wood. Your own small world, floating.

This is the part of Amsterdam nobody photographs but everyone who stays long enough learns to crave.

How are you enjoying the last rays of sun in the month of august?

Diving straight off the window, w**e on the windowsill, jumpinh from the rooftop, and a toast at golden hour. This is what the last stretch of August looks like on the boats.

A few days of summer left. Make sure you make them count.
