What to do in Amsterdam this Autumn 2018: Music, Lifestyle, Food, and Business events. (with prices and addresses)
Autumn is when it’s not too cold yet, but there is no warm wind anymore. Autumn is the time for books, tea, blankets, cuddles, and red wine. Autumn is when your mood slightly changes because of the lack of the Sun.
