Yo wuddup world. This is IYBC reporting to your from Holland. The past weekend has been unbelievably relaxing and refreshing, a welcome change from the hustle and bustle of life back in Canada. EURO-UPDATE On Friday I took a tour of an ancient castle owned by a few of the oldest families in the Netherlands. That night we dined on stuffed chicken breast and garlic mashed potatoes, along with home-made apple pie, prepared with love by Mrs. Euro-FF, who is a bomb-ass chef. That night, I had my first experience of Dutch Nightlife, at an invitation only, all-guestlist nightclub called The House of Jimmy Woo located in Leidseplein in downtown Amsterdam. Saturday night we had this dope four course meal at Rex in downtown Hilversum and tonight, we dined at an old-school Indonesian joint called Batavia (literal translation: an import/export boat which specialzies in herbs & spices) in downtown Arnhem. So yeah dude, that’s about six cities in Holland in one weekend. And clearly, thus far, its been food, food and MORE food. Quiet a change from not eating at all, to three solid meals a day! Hahaha. FASHION New York Fashion Week has come to an end, and I’ll be doing sporadic updates in regards to it. London Fashion Week is in full swing man! How exciting, I’m so damn close to it here in Holland. Watch for some exciting news on that real soon kids!
