Indeed! We did a PA meeting in Den Haag in March.

Beautiful town.

What are your fav coffeeshops? (in any town)

Aaah, sadly I missed that meeting, maybe next time. Here in leiden there's a nice little coffeeshop called Coffee and Dreams, right in the centre, so its very convinient. It also has a little bar right next to it.
 
But I have to admit that I've calmed down with the pot smoking in the last year, and because I am stiil underage (Embarrassed) going to a proper amsterdam style coffeshop trip has been quite a difficulty. In less then a year I will make sure to do it. (better to do it right then do it early)

Sounds like a great place to live. I'm from Israel, yet I've lived in Europe for quite a few years already.

Well thanks for the welcome, even though I'm not new at all anymore. As much as I love this forums and I do, alot, I've never been very active. I read, get informed and research,...thats about it. I go on it very often though, just don't say much usually.
