Cool. Amsterdam-Oost is amazing. It's also my home, despite not living there. I took over from you when I came in in 2006.

Oost had a bit more of a dark vibe to it back then, lot of charm. Oud Zuid was quickly becoming yuppie space and although the food and bar (and coffeeshop) scene was pretty awesome there, I still more fondly look back to my time in Oost.

Oost has always been very magical and a nice mix of stuff.
I'm afraid though all of Amsterdam has now completely turned yuppie. It's really sad.

I was strolling around the city on a thursday afternoon this summer. It felt like "Amsterdammers" now means "dudes walking around the city with a buggy because he had to take time off taking care of the kid so that his partner can earn the insane amount of money required to pay the mortgage". lol

Where's a place that still has that same vibe?

I honestly don't know - not sure if it is possible to have nowadays. Good old bad times?
