    Idk why but the "I may have accidentally inhaled some weed" part cracked me up. And those Fearless books look very useful for travel sketching! Makes me think of a Traveller's notebook with their elastic binding system but adapted for sketching. Very cool.

    Thank you so much, Teoh, for recording the symposium, interviewing the attendees, and showing your sketches and wanderings in Amsterdam. It’s a real gift to those of us who can’t be there. Thanks, too, to USk for supporting you. Have a wonderful time!

    Another gorgeous video Teoh. I'm not sure if you realize the tremendous gift you give to so many people around the world that can't attend these gatherings. I found it very moving to see the cameraderie among all the sketchers -- people committed to capturing the beauty around them. Bravo! And thanks again!

      Oh, and if you're at Central Station Amsterdam, you could take the free ferry to the other side (1-2 minutes), and right where you arrive is a nice spot on the grass to look back at the water and the C.S. on the other side.
      Although I assume you'll be visiting Utrecht in the next few days, and perhaps Zaanse Schans (Zaandam) and perhaps Alkmaar (cheese market on friday morning, although I believe they now also have it on tuesday night ...)
      Public transport is very expensive in Holland though, and so is eating outside.

      Oh and in case you didn’t notice: on your way from your hotel to the Hub you pass the Rembrandt house, where Rembrandt worked and lived. He was an urban sketcher avant la lettre, if you see all the portaits and landscapes and little sketches he made. If you have time, the museum that’s there now is worth a visit!
