IS ZAANSE SCHANS A *TOURIST TRAP*? (netherlands travel guide)

Описание: In this episode, Michelle and Alex explore the Zaanse Schans, a beautiful open air museum about 20 minutes north of Amsterdam. Is this TikTok-famous park actually worth a trip or is it just like the infamous €10 stroopwafels at Van Wonderen in Amsterdam: nothing but a tourist trap?

WHO IS BUNCHARTED?

We're Michelle and Alex, an American expat couple living abroad in the Netherlands. 🇳🇱

In 2020, we quit our jobs to travel the world, and... well, that didn't happen. So in 2022, we decided to make an even BIGGER change: to pack up our lives (and our cats 🐈) and move from Austin, Texas, in the United States, to the Netherlands. Subscribe for new videos like this every week!
