Why did you move to Amsterdam?
To study.
What do you like to do in Amsterdam?
Playing football.
What do you think of Amsterdam street culture,
how the people dress, express themselves?
It’s casual and easy going. But I miss elegance and extraordinary
looking people.
Did your style of clothing changed since you live here, and
because of what, these can be emotional, cultural reasons
or and practical reasons such as weather or availability?
I start not to care about how other people look at my way of
dressing. I could wear any kind of easy outfit, but I don’t put in
so much effort and don’t spend money for it. On the other hand
I start to customise it. The weather has affected it a lot. I never
wear laser shoes here because the rain.
Are you influenced by what you consider Dutch culture
or by any other culture represented in Amsterdam?
Not so much by the Dutch culture. I think Dutch culture is pretty
neutral, it does not have a strong colour. But I am influenced
by Dutch mentality. They are super individualistic .
