The dating scene in Amsterdam

Amsterdam is a compact, international and liberal city where directness and equality are valued. A large expatriate community, strong tech and creative sectors and a young population shape the dating scene. People often meet in brown cafés, canal-side terraces and on bikes. The city is easy to explore, and plans are usually informal and made in advance.
