Has anyone been to Netherlands recently? Looking for the latest intel.

Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out

I was there a while back and had a good time. Wondering if things have changed.

Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.

Cheers

Did you use dating apps or find girls at clubs?

Also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

Adding my experience: scene has bounced back since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 15-20%.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was much better. Experience makes all the difference.
