I live in Amsterdam and I love it, public transport is amazing and cycling lanes are one of the best in the world. I never used a car here and never felt that I have to. Yes, rent is expensive, but it's like that because there is demand for it. If I wanted to live in the country side, yes, I would leave 20 km outside the city, but why would I want to leave that far away when I that means spending hours daily just to get where I want to? I fell in love with being able to bike or take the tram to get where I need in 15mins average.
