Dutch Grandma showed me her Amsterdam Canal House

I met a Dutch grandma in Amsterdam and she wanted to show me her Amsterdam Canal House at a prime location. She has been living in that house for 64 years! Watch on this video what happened after that. #amsterdam #amsterdamhouses #amsterdamcanalhouse #netherlands

On my first visit to Amsterdam we stayed in a canal home, and the steep stairs is what I remember most about the house other than the magnificent views! She is sitting on a gold mine!!

Watched this when you were live streaming and this nine minutes of delightful spontaneity by the lady and your embracement of her gesture is what made this your best walk of which I have seen a few. You're a perfect gentleman and a credit to your city. Regards.

[@neldewijn7536]

So agree!

[@martindejong3974]

you see all the thimbles in a wooden rack, that rack was not made for this but to house typesetting lead letters for letterpress printing. As this type of printing became obsolete the wooden type cases were re-used as decorative wall pieces that could be filled with all kinds of "prullaria" (knick knacks) in this case a collection of thimbles.

[@neldewijn7536]

I did not know that, thanks !

Such a great experience, just because you went to get coffee at the perfect time.

[@Followmytravels]

Wow, good night Tomiisan! You are thankfully so late to catch my early video 😄 You're right, a little coffee break helped us to meet this amazing lady!

[@tomiisan8g155]

@@Followmytravels Haha, I have a lot of things I'm working on now and was up late, and saw this just before bed, I had to watch again. That's how life sometimes works though, being in the right place at the right time. And, having enough battery to be there on time. 😅

[@Lilygirl283]

Wow, i'm amazed she can still go up those first set of stairs. I have seen some canal houses for sale, but they are renovated and modernised, the view is beautiful...

[@Followmytravels]

🤷‍♂️🙏👍

[@neldewijn7536]

Too dangerous even for a sixty four year old.

[@gilauth6791]

What a adventure. Unique opportunity thanks to Murat and his constant unequal determination in sharing the Netherlands with all it facets and simplicity .How Many would or could have such a chance ?¿? Thanks Take Care Enjoy

[@Followmytravels]

Thanks very much Meneer Gil 🙌

[@EitelFederico]

Murat, Thanks for showing this house! It was like a timecapsule and I think that not much has changed in the last decade. I remember that kind of interior from the 1980’s. Very interesting but also a bit dangerous for the old lady.

[@Followmytravels]

It s may pleasure. Thank you for your great comment 🙏💫

[@jaynesierakowska3120]

Thank you, I always wondered what it was like inside the houses. So steep!! I presume she had a bathroom and bedroom downstairs as well?

[@Followmytravels]

You re welcome! Not sure but maybe there is another bathroom in the first floor otherwise it s too difficult. 🤷‍♂️

[@caseylwr]

Looks like my grandma's place, very nice but old. I don't know how she is managing all these stairs. Very steep and dangerous.

Murat, Henk & his Gay friend Mokum from Amsterdam Live say Hello Sailor !!!!!!!!!!👍😄

[@neldewijn7536]

Even. Though I grew up in Holland and lived with one flight of stairs, I was shocked by the steepness of grandma’s stairs as well as three flights more for bathrooms, bedroom and kitchen. How can she live like that, does she have to go up and down to cook or go to bed! Also the top level, zolder, seems to be exposed to moisture on the walls, sad to see.

[@neldewijn7536]

Despite that, loved thecspontaneity of this video, and the lady is showing good old Dutch hospitality.

[@Followmytravels]

I hardly go up and down by myself. I don't know how Oma can still manage that🤷‍♂️ Thanks a lot for your comment 🙏

[@alani8881]

What a nice lady but i have a friend recently that got drugged that way and yes he was a guy,an elder lady invited him into her home in Belgium had a drink and woke up the next morning a couple blocks away naked..Kinda funny for a guy but scary also lol we found him with along with the police cause we were looking for him for a day .
