Paul Willems and Amsterdam
My name is Paul Willems. I lived in Amsterdam during my studies in Technical Business Administration and Logistics, and later worked in the city. Those years gave me a connection to Amsterdam that extends beyond its best-known sights.
I now live in the east of the Netherlands, but return to Amsterdam regularly. I use those visits, alongside what I learned while living and working there, to write about the places and practical details you’ll find on this website.
Amsterdam Explore helps you decide what to see and do, whether it’s your first trip or a return visit. I aim to keep the guides clear and useful: what a place offers, why you might want to go and how it fits into your day.

Start with our museum guides, explore Amsterdam’s history or choose a park for a break outdoors.
