ASMR Amsterdam (map tracing, soft spoken)

I visited Amsterdam for the first time last autumn and enjoyed it immensely. There are a some touristy spots, sure, but it's so easy to just wander around and enjoy the city and all its wonderful details - especially thanks to all the suggestions and recommendations you left me back then!
Today we can only have a cursory glance at the centre and its history, just enough for you to hopefully drift off. We'll look for where the initial dam was constructed, follow some of the canals, and find some of the highlights of the city.
The book in the video is "A Millenium of Amsterdam. Spatial History of a Marvellous City" by Fred Feddes - an equally marvellous publication! If you like maps and old photos, do have a look at it.
Nail polish: Essie 722 feelin' poppy (unexpectedly vibrant!)

You possess one of the most soothing, gentle and calming voices in the entire world. Your lovely manner, sophisticated demeanor combined with the flowing clarity of your descriptive narrative commands attention and interest, I am carried forever upwards to a realm of peaceful bliss on the wings of your velvety serene vocals. Thank you so much.

Most amazingly structured city in the world in my opinion. Canal cities are just different. St Petersburg, Amsterdam, Venice, also cities with smaller waterways like Bruge or Hamburg, they're my favourite ones, especially the Hanseatic cities.

We just got back from a family trip to Amstersdam yesterday. Had a wonderful time too. Ever since you teased this topic, I've been waiting in anticipation for this video. The perfect way to wind down after my first day back at work after the trip 🥰 Thank you.

Omg - I haven’t been able to listen/watch asmr for three months as I have been co sleeping with my newborn - and the first video I see in my timeline is one of my own city Amsterdam. Must be a sign! 🩷

[@joshuataylor3550]

1. Sign of what, exactly?
2. It's not a sign, the universe is complete chaos and your life has no inherent meaning. Any order you find is merely your mind desperately finding any reason not to end it's own existence.

Ignore the rude, obnoxious response to your comment - some people get their kicks spreading unhappiness, which is sad considering that so many of us watch these lovely videos for a reprieve from all that. Congratulations on your new baby, Rose River!

[@rorythomson3439]

Enjoy the baby years, they go so fast 😢

[@roseriverasmr]

@nathaliem90 thank you 🩷 Luckily I am in no way affected by comments like these 😂 I think it’s just a bit sad that one would find the need to spread unkindness like this, but I hope Joshua is fine and had a good night of sleep last night 😉

[@SunnySunshineField]

@@roseriverasmr What a beautiful comment ❤ 😊

[@sailorgirl2017]

Bless you Melange, I may have made it through 10 minutes of this before falling into a beautifully heavy sleep. I’ll always play the video again and learn something, which is why I love your channel 💜😴
