Berlin Liebt Dich Nicht

The weirdest commercials i’ve seen in a while.

Gandhi promoting Dutch city Groningen, Darwin wants you to eat the Biscuits of Bolletje and Bob Ross tells you not to drink and drive.

The woodcutter (or in Dutch ‘t Houtzagertje’) is one of those Gems in Amsterdam Street Art. This tiny sculpture was placed by an unknown artist some years ago and can still be found up to this date. Another scuplture of this artist is the blue man with the violin. Also referred to as ‘the man that tries to catch tram 10’. There was some speculation that the artist might be Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, since it takes some influence to actually get the scupltures placed on these places. Nevertheless. No one knows.

Some additonal info (in Dutch)

One of the new stars in Amsterdam Street Art is Dode Wereld (Dead World). Here’s two more i made just around the corner of Thorbeckeplein.

Okay this one is a little difficult to explain in English. Dutch right-wing government is not doing much good for the environment and nature lately. As a protest people started striping through all references to nature in street signs. Here, for instance, are the words Boom (meaning: Tree) and Eland (Moose) striped through.

Sometimes, whilst in Belgium, one can see something that will never be seen in Holland (and that’s why I looove Belgium). Take for instance these signs. It’s a promotion for a temporary employment agency. It is situated just around the corner of the Red Light District.

I saw this one from the top of MAS Antwerp

the traffic sign states: you’re on the right track. good to know.
