Amsterdam: living on water
 

Hey, just curious, anybody from Amster here who live in these 'boats', know anyone living there? How good is that? What about winter time? Looks fun but ...

Just post your experience.

Looks like a floating blowjob party waiting to happen. Count me in.

It's awesome, lots of fishies in the water.

We have them here in Utrecht too. They look decend but I would never buy one personally.

would rather live on a houseboat on one of the old canals.

care do develop a lil?

Looks very cool. Any idea how much they are on average?

He is afraid of water

Haha well that but also the fact that they have this "fancy right now, but hard to sell later" look.

Except for the look... sewage, power and shit... how did they do it?

Shit and piss out the window, into the water... Simples...

They stay in 1 spot so it's all connected to the main land.

Curious what would be the bill winter time.....

send you some links

Cheap, banner making loser. Electric isn't free. Stick to where you know best. Wherever the fuck it is you are.

No idea tbh but I would reckon the same as most other new houses. We duchies know how to isolate our homes

Good vibes. Looks good to me, at least, it says its cheaper then those built on land due to geographic.

Made of three geodesic domes, it uses solar power and local water and energy sources, thus using 60% less energy than comparable structures.

I would imagine that greater care would have to be taken in the case of sewage, to ensure that nothing leaks into the water (extra regulation and extra expense) in the wintertime, with having access to the water, its possible to use geo-thermal heat pump technology which is fairly cheap. Not sure if you have to have a bubbler under the hull, to keep the ice from damaging it. Not that familiar with Dutch winters.

In Amsterdam you're living 'under water'.

The OP couldn't afford a yard sale Monopoly board thimble to piss in. Don't bother.

what a fucking shithole!

Looks like the neigbour on the right has either a full jacuzzi, or a BBW.

Cool for sure, didn't know about that.

Looks pretty cool :pimp

some experience on a houseboats :)
 

Looking good :3 Would like to try that some day

Didn't Franck live on a boat at some point? I remember him posting photos.

as romantic as it sounds - you have permanently people watching you. from land and from the sighseeing boats. you can not squeeze your balls once without someone seeing it

Some people like that :pimp

I've always wanted to try one of those homes... but when it comes to ball squeezing, that's something I'd prefer was a private event.

Torn.

Ever since first watching MacGyver had the dream of living on a houseboat :)

He did :2 cents:

That's what would put me off living in one :disgust

This is exciting and relieving of annoying buzzing of damn mechanism.....it is wonderful to enjoy the city on a non-mechanical water vehicles ....but mechanical vehicles are also present....

say wat ? is that you Fatfoo ? :helpme

So my brother has one of these in Key West. Not a big but for the most part the same idea. You have to think about things like "where I place my sofa" since you do need to balance out the weight in the house.

Over all when we go to visit him each January, I really enjoy my stay.
