Photowalk in Amsterdam

Who would like to join me for a photo-walk in Amsterdam?

I am thinking meeting around the Portuguese Synagogue, and walk towards Brouwerij 't IJ. We can finish off the walk with a beer, and if there is still energy, we can do some night photography to cap off the walk.

If there’s enough interest, we can do these walks periodically.

Hi @aquilesC ,

Welcome to Connect!

Meeting fellow Local Guides in your area, is a great idea! If you want to find fellow Local Guides from your area, try searching the community for mentions of your city/region to find posts with that name in the title, body of the post, or the location tag. Feel free to jump into these conversations and engage with the Local Guides near you.

You also have the option to host a meet-up here on Connect, or join an existing meet-up. You’re welcome to share your meet-up via your social channels, as well. Please have a look at the link below, as this is useful when planning a successful meet-up:

How to organize a successful meet-up.

P. S. I will move your post to our Meet-ups board, thanks.

Hey, sounds great. I have been to a walk like this in my city before and it was quite fun. We were out to photograph and describe some local stores and restaurants.

@aquilesC no beer, but I’m in for a photo walk.

When are you available? Saturday 28th?

Hello @aquilesC , I have already seen a number of attempts to organize a photowalk (or other type of meetup) by just writing a post, like you did, and then exchanging some comments with other local guides in order to find a date, but I don’t think I have ever seen one that has actually lead to a meetup. As @AlexaAC already mentioned, it’s definitely best to make a formal Meetup submission - just pick a date that suits you.

As it happens, I have recently written a post with some tips on meetups. I hope it can help you too.

Although I have visited Amsterdam myself quite a few times in the past (for professional reasons), I will not be able to travel there for a meetup myself in the near future, unfortunately.

Next weekend will not work for me. When are you available?

What about the 5th of October?

@aquilesC @Sharon_1

I can the 28sep, but not 5oct.

12 October?

That sounds like fun! Not really into the night for me as I have a young daughter, but the photo walk can be fun. I didn’t see anything hosted, so I’ll make a meet-up for somewhere in November so people actually have time to find and join the meetup. :wink:

Hope to see you both!
