Are you mentally prepared for Amsterdam?
 It is a city of extremes. If you come with your own Ferrari, we recommend shopping in the PC Hooftstraat. For Young-ISHAM members with not too much money, there is a specialized peanutbuttershop, and a toothbrushshop and similar places that can make you happy for less than one euro. You can have your cocktail in a chic Skylounge with a view over the city, or grab a beer in a minute 16th century bar hidden in the old center. ISHAM will guarantee you a good time in this dazzling city, and will regularly highlight nice places to go and experience, before, during and after the congress.
