AMSTERDAM
A CITY PROJECT FOR LOVERS OF ARCHITECTURE, HISTORY AND BICYCLES
Location: The Netherlands
Population: 813,000
Language: Dutch (all city projects are taught in English)
Walk and ride your way through this liberated and historic town.
With its winding canals and rows of crooked houses on stilts, it’s no surprise that Amsterdam has been coined the Venice of the North. The capital of The Netherlands is a smaller city in comparison to our other city projects, but it makes up for it with a big personality developed over centuries of rise, fall and freedom.
Amsterdam makes for a great city project thanks to its walk-ability, culture of acceptance, rich history, beautiful architecture, famous beers, Eco-friendliness and general safety. Explore this liberated town on foot or by bicycle while you learn or grow your skills in travel writing and editing.

Total Wanderlust: AMSTERDAM
JUNE 2020
Join us for the month-long, city-based project in Amsterdam that combines workspace learning with on-foot experiences with the help of your exclusive media pass.
Total Wanderlust explores how to write, edit and photograph for travel and will see you creating a travel guide on Amsterdam in collaboration with your class of fellow wanderlusters.
Held during the European summer, days will average a pleasant 24 degrees Celsius and the city will be host to a number of popular events such as Comedytrain International Summer Festival, Vondelpark Open Air Theatre and the Amsterdam Roots Festival.
The workspace is located a stone’s throw from the city centre in the truly creative environment of The Thinking Hut – Amsterdam’s ‘workspace for the creative minds’!
Experience Amsterdam for its incredible history, architecture, museums and galleries while you develop your skills as a travel writer, reviewer and photographer in this peaceful, beautiful city.
