This dagpauwoogvlinder (peacock butterfly) has been hiding out for days in my #Amsterdam houseboat now. Every exit I offered has been declined.

Just showing off the blooming magnolia on my #Amsterdam floating garden.
A magnolia is also called magnolia in Dutch, though pronounced totally differently.

My hometown Amsterdam, where I teach #Dutch to non-native speakers. Riding a rusty bike (fietsen) is something they’ll have to learn all on their own. And if they wanna look like a local: no helmets. Enjoy the ride!

A dirty martini the #Amsterdam way, with instead of smashed olives, ‘zilveruitjes’ (silver onions) by local producer @kesbeke, at newly reopened Café de Reiger @dereiger.

One more from yesterday’s #feministmarch in #Amsterdam, which was attended bij more than 20.000 feminists. This was one of the best texts I encoutered: ‘Why don’t you just mansplain why we’re all here.’

‘Een kind kan de was doen’, literally a child can do the laundry, means that something is very easy to do or learn. Like #Dutch is (image: @tastachova).

#Dutchlingo of the week: lentekriebels - spring fever, or rather spring jitters. A bodily itch to enjoy the first rays of spring sunshine. Not to be confused with hooikoorts (hay fever), which not so coincidentally often coincides with the advent of spring.
