I've moved from Amsterdam to London almost 4 months ago, I love London but I'm having a bit of a hard time socialising. I would love to be able to speak Dutch every now and then. To my significant other, moving here was going home, to me it is a new opportunity to start all over again explore new things in life and hopefully meet some new friends.

I used to live in East London too (King's X, Caledonian road, and canada water which I preferred)

That part of the city is fantastic!

Hi Invader_Stu,

thanks for you post, you've got an awesome blog; love all your drawings! I'm a graphic designer and I'm good at spotting talent So how's life in Amsterdam? I miss my friends over there but to be honest I don't miss Amsterdam, does that sound horrible?

I love London, there's so much to do and see around here... Why did you move to NL?

Thanks for the complements. My ego just grew :p

I know what you mean about Amsterdam. I work in there but I'm happy of the fact I don't live there. Sometimes it is a little too crazy. I just got back from a few weeks in London so I'm have to get used to being in Holland again.
