We didn’t know what to expect at all. I guess it’s just a bucket list thing for Amsterdam. There was one particular sensual performance that I really liked, another performance was just a bit too blunt to my taste. Overall it was fun to experience, for us just a once in a lifetime thing. For me and my bf it was an exciting start of a memorable night.
We visited with a bunch of mates. We pushed the shyest one forward as a volunteer, he’s not going to forget! 😉
