      My First Time...in Amsterdam - Lucien Limonee

      FOREWORD

      Hey Fellow Wayfarers !

      Welcome to the first leg of my storytelling expedition—a layover escapade in the eclectic city of Amsterdam before jetting off to the sun-soaked Greek Isles. If you've already dived into the quirky canals and tulip-filled streets, you've caught a glimpse of the prelude to my island-hopping adventure.

      Now, here's the scoop: If you're content with just soaking in the Amsterdam vibes and want to leave the Greek island exploration for another day, that's totally cool! Consider this book your personal Amsterdam travel companion, filled with the tales of bikes, canals, and the irresistible aroma of stroopwafels.

      However, if the anticipation is killing you, and you're hungry for more—more islands, more adventures, more of my sometimes questionable decision-making—then buckle up because I've got a whole omnibus waiting for you. It's the extended edition, the director's cut, the whole enchilada of my journey, from the quaint streets of Amsterdam to the sun-drenched shores of Greece.

      Inside those pages, you'll find the untold stories, the hidden gems, and the full scoop on every island I encountered. But hey, no pressure. Enjoy the Amsterdam layover, savor the moments, and if you decide to take the plunge into the complete collection, well, let's just say the Greek Islands are waiting with open arms.

      Thanks for joining me on this adventure, whether it's a quick layover or a full-blown island-hopping extravaganza. Here's to
