Meanwhile, back here in the U.S. they seem intent on dumbing us down. And I did hit the redlight district. It wasn't as clean as the parts of the city that you visited, but it was a lot cleaner than New Orleans circa 2000 was for instance. And to be as old a city as it is, I would have to say it was very clean.

I think they are also very good at languages due to the influence media and technology has, certain phrases from films etc are picked up on and used

I like Amsterdam too though, since it's well.. so different from where I live.
Though I'm not sure if I could live there.. things in the south are way more laid back than above the rivers  |
yeh eindhoven was very nice, loved the big stadium and seeing the philips factory office.

Difficult city to live in workwise though, it kills my productivity.
