Hi there everybody!
I'm a Vietnamese girl who is living in Santa Claus home country - Finland 
and I'm going to Amsterdam in 2 weeks for 1 exchange semester I'm so excited and also a bit nervous about my trip now 
I have a small trouble on my arrival day that I really need a little help or advices from you guys I will arrive in Amsterdam at about 4pm and the first thing I need to do is going to the house company (deKey is the name of the company) to pick up the key. However, they only open until 4.30pm, so there's no chance I can make it in time.
I would have 2 options: either I can ask someone to come pick the key up for me before they close (they allow this option) or I need to arrange the first night by myself. Honestly, I don't know anybody in Amsterdam at all, and so lucky that I found this forum. I would appreciate a lot if someone can help me out or give me some advices
Anyway, it would be very nice to make new friends in a new city. And if anyone interested in visiting Finland or Vietnam, I'm here for your information
And sorry in case my post is not in the right place Thanks for reading my super long post
