Imagine waking up on a houseboat to the gentle rocking of small waves. Having breakfast and sharing it with the duck and swans who pass by your window and want a scrap. Or waving to the people who pass by in small boats enjoying a day out on the water. Not to mention when you step out and you will find lots of nice restaurants, cafes, outdoor terrasses and lovely shops all aroud the area.This is also a preffered neighbourhood for the locals who live in the luxury converted loft apartments in the old warehouses. It\'\'s a gayfriendly (gaypride parade), blowfriendly, dogfriendly and people friendly neighbourhood. The houseboat is situated on one of the oldest canals of the famous canalbelt. Most points of interest are in walking distance. The nice things you want to see in Amsterdam are in quite a small area of the city, so Amsterdam is really like a beautiful village.
