Morning, 10 a.m. Day 2
0:07
Alright, so people are downstairs having breakfast. I didn't pay for breakfast, but I want to see if there was a vegan option and if I should have
0:15
Alright, so I think it's about 12 euros something to pay for breakfast
0:19
If I did, all I'd be having is fruits and fast ones and possibly bread
0:27
So smart decision made. I'm going to head out into the central to have breakfast
0:33
I want to hit the gym and then get on with the day. So we're going to head to the park and use the bars
0:40
What a beautiful morning, especially in this location. Just being amongst this
0:46
There's people running and skating, people exercising. There's people even doing yoga over there
0:51
Just finished doing some workout. Going to head to the spot that those guys were meditating
0:57
I'm gonna sit there and just reconnect Commune with my creator. All right, we're clean fresh today. We're down to 64 pound
1:08
Which equates to 74 euros? Let's see what one that means we can do for that price. I was wondering if I could rent a bike. Yes
1:20
Alright, so the rates to rent a bike at the hostel are eight euros per half day and 16 for the full day
1:27
Now the problem here is you need to put a deposit of 50 euros down
1:31
Just in case anything goes wrong. Get the bike to the hotel, you get the 50 euros back. Okay
1:37
So that's just the deposit. Okay, that's a nice. Alright, so where do I find the bikes, sir
1:41
Oh, you'll find them in the entrance. Alright so the train The train has just stopped because apparently there a demonstration in the central and the
2:03
trains can't go there so now everyone's having to walk to the central. This is the protests going on
2:11
I want to find out what it's about. I want to see if I can find someone who speaks a bit of English
2:16
Can I ask what the protest is about? We are against all the strange things happening
2:21
What type of strange things? The energy prices in Holland are the highest in Europe
2:26
Oh, inflation. This is a demonstration of their stand against the government and inflation
2:34
These are humans like just standing up for each other. For breakfast, I'm thinking vegan pancakes
2:40
Let's head in there. Some lemon pancakes to start the morning. a lemon and sugar pancake for 9 euros 40. one pancake so minus that from our toll and we have
2:59
so i'm walking down the high street and i see this what the heck just right on the high street
3:05
there's no hiding it i know amsterdam's famous for its red light district but this
3:10
just having all this stuff just out here in public i mean this is like taking it to a next level
3:15
We definitely need to check out the red light district today. Alright, look what I found
3:20
Ice bar. Yes, please. How much is the ticket? $26.50 with three drinks
3:27
Alright, so I've just paid 26 euros 50. And I've got three drinks in exchange for that
3:32
And a cold bar. Alright, so I'm in the waiting area. You get to have a drink whilst you wait
3:43
before you go into the actual ice bar experience where you have two extra tokens to exchange for two drinks I went for the Amsterdam or something like that And apparently this is less sweet
4:01
Oh, it's actually pretty sweet. I don't know what she's talking about. So apparently this is Sex on the Beach, the sweet one
4:08
Oh, hello. Hello! Hello! Oh, I said I would have a cold iced beer
4:48
I don't mind a shot as well. Alright, we've only been here a few minutes and my fingers are starting to go
4:56
It's getting too cold, my fingers are absolutely frozen and I'm out
5:03
Oh my lord. Alright so I just found some way to have lunch. Pokeball
5:14
Hope the prices are under 10 euros, preferably. Which one is your favourite
5:21
Well for vegan options I think I would go with tempeh. Okay I'll have that please
5:25
Tempeh ball? Yes, thank you so much. I've just ordered a large pokeball for 11 euros 80 and it's got tempeh and rice and some
5:36
other delicious treats. All right so we reached the red light district As you can see the building with the coloured windows and the curtains
5:50
Now I won't be able to go over there with the camera but I'm going to have a stroll
5:57
look around and I'll let you guys know what I see. Alright and that brings us to the end of the red light district streets
6:05
It was fun, kind of somewhat, not really actually. Half of the windows were empty
6:11
and the ones that you did see wasn't as exciting as you'd expect it to be
6:16
Alright, so I just found somewhere to see it, and I've got the other half of the brownie
6:20
So, let's give it a go. It seems a little bit less than half
6:31
Yesterday was an experience. this is 8 46 we're going to give it an hour and then we'll see what happens so the idea of this
6:39
challenge being having a weekend in amsterdam 450 pound now weekend meaning you come on saturday
6:45
morning you don't want to go friday night because you end up paying for a hotel on friday night and
6:50
you don't get to see anything or explore the city so best to come saturday morning you book one
6:55
hostel or hotel that saturday and then sunday evening you go back home so this is around the
7:01
time you'd be catching your flight to go back home because you've got work on monday so as far as the
7:06
challenge has gone i've completed it i feel like i'm even trying to find things to spend that money
7:12
on but um it's been like a great two days so far so that brings us to the end of the video
7:17
and this is how you can spend 150 pound in amsterdam for two days my name is sober
7:23
and this has been the hack see you in the next one peace
