Paradox Coffeeshop Amsterdam (Part 1) by AdventuresInEurope.com

[theamazingscott1]

I can't wait till I'm 18 to go to Amsterdam cuz when I am I'm on the first plain out there to Amsterdam but it sucks that I'm 16 I have to another 2 years

[iamproxbox]

@theamazingscott1 by the time your old enough it will all be shut down! coffe shops and red lights are not what the dutch want as thier image anymore it is all going sorry to break the news to you lolz ive been 6 times and everytime it gets smaller and the coffee shops get stricter :( check out the news the dam is on the way out

[theamazingscott1]

@iamproxbox that fucking sucks for me if it happens before im 18 i hope it doesnt i dont know why they would want to ruin a good thing they have there i would want to keep the coffea shops going forever

[TheSarcasticBear]

@theamazingscott1 don't worry man, there will always be enough coffeeshops and plenty of weed in Holland, don't let anyone tell you different (I live in the Netherlands so I know) and don't stress about that it will change or anything because right now there's no one making a problem over here about weed (like in the politics and such) so I'm sure you'll be able to come over and smoke something good when you're 18

[theamazingscott1]

@TheSarcasticBear thanks for the info bro idk why people try to but a bunch of bull shit in peoples heads cant wait until im 18

[vegardertilbake1]

Hi! I was wondering if the local shops are tourist friendly. And lets say youre abit young (20-25 years), is it possible they dont want you in the shop? Thanks, love to see more videos big d

[adventuresineurope]

@vegardertilbake1 The local shops are tourist friendly and welcome all adults.The ages of the customers vary widely. Everyone is welcome. You will enjoy your time.

[vegardertilbake1]

@adventuresineurope Sounds great! Thanks again

[FOATE]

@vegardertilbake1 in my local coffeeshop the avarage age is about 20 to 30. Although theres also alot of older guys aging from 40 to 60 years old.

But as long as you're 18 you're welcome in any coffeshop in our country. The only thing is if you look abit young they might as for ID at the door or at the counter. So make sure you got one with you at all times :)

[vegardertilbake1]

@FOATE Cool. I've heard so many false stories in the media and such, so its good to hear it from someone who has experience first hand. Thanks!

[Storbein]

@vegardertilbake1 I was in netherlands in october, dont remember the name of the town, but it was about 1 and a half hour north from amsterdam, me and my friend were visiting a friend we met over the internet. we went to a local coffee shop there, although tourists seemed to be very unusual there, we werent given any different service than the others,they werent accustomed to foreign ID though, but we worked it out. however, my friend fell asleep, and thats when things got weird.

[ryankhan11]

cheese is my favourite kind of weed man. I havent had it in such a long time :/

[sPxJooPoo]

im not sure i understand, he's selling tobacco + weed joints but your not allowed to smoke them inside? We're do you smoking them and can you smoke normal cigarettes on the street?

Many Thanks,

[adventuresineurope]

@sPxJooPoo Just noticed your question. You can smoke cigarettes on the street. Some coffeeshops have a separate area for tobacco smoke, but many shops do not.

[sPxJooPoo]

@adventuresineurope Okay, Thank-you very much, best wishes and have a good christmas.

[TheSarcasticBear]

@adventuresineurope Dutch law doesn't allow smoking tobacco in cafes or restaurants and such, but smoking weed is allowed in pretty much every coffeeshop and yeah a lot of shops have a smoking area but if you keep your cigarette 'under the table' nobody will complain..

[thijskole123]

@sPxJooPoo u are allowed 2 smoke inside or @ home

[sjonbeton]

donny29dsm>>> that's called "skuff"

[andrewpoopoo]

amnesia haze is one of the best weeds i have smoked. And I am from the UK so loving the cheese haha

[donny29dsm]

Do they sell the blonde hash that's made from gathering up the thc crystals from a grinder and pressing it together in Amsterdam?I do it at home and it's some of the most potent stuff i've ever smoked and i'd love to have a nice chunk of it to smoke!The most i've ever saved is about a gram and a half cause it takes so much to actually make a full gram,so it'd be nice to be able to buy a few grams!

[Reyalp]

One of my goals in life is now to visit Paradox and order something reaaally good. Would do anything to go there.

[LillFillBeatbox]

is it leagal to take a bong from amsterdam as a "souvenir" ? :D cuz im going to Amsterdam in summer :D and could anyone tell me were there is some good and chill cofee shop(s)? :)

[pawwr]

Hi man!

Come to BC this summer in the Okanagan Valley haha! No?

Making video with my friends and I.

[xvxpivotxvx]

Now, whats the age to smoke cannabis? Do you have to be 18 to smoke it? Or is that just to enter a shop and purchase it?

[adventuresineurope]

@xvxpivotxvx 18 is the legal age to enter a coffeeshop and possess up to 5 grams of cannabis.

[xvxpivotxvx]

@adventuresineurope Well, what about smoking it? Do you have to be 18 to also smoke it?

[adventuresineurope]

@xvxpivotxvx Yes.

[xvxpivotxvx]

@adventuresineurope Alright, thanks man :)

[adventuresineurope]

@xvxpivotxvx You are very welcome my friend. : )

[kickflip66]

@adventuresineurope the prices on the menu look REALLY low... I don't know anything about Amsterdam pricing but is this one of the cheaper shops you've shown us?

[adventuresineurope]

@kickflip66 Paradox does have some of the best prices in Amsterdam. It's one of our favorite shops.

[HabboMecure]

@xvxpivotxvx

Are you fucking retarded??

Your questions are embarrassing to read.

[xvxpivotxvx]

@HabboMecure Fucking retarded? I rather not get arrested for some for something stupid like age. I'm sure your parents are embarrassed to have such an asshole son. So how about you hop off my dick, k?

[HabboMecure]

@xvxpivotxvx

Haha im sure your parents are ashamed to have a son who can't understand that there wouldn't be a difference between possession age and smoking age

What the fuck are you going to do with the weed if you can buy it at 18 and can only smoke it at a later age you fool.

[cricket12356]

isit possible i go with one of my frienns we go into a coffe shop baring in mins he is 19 and im 16 buy canabis gom nack to the hotel and get stgoned out of out heads there

?

[adventuresineurope]

@cricket12356 You must be 18 to enter a Coffeeshop in Amsterdam.

[trollfinger]

@cricket12356

If they allow you to smoke in your hotel. You can buy and consume beer though at 16. Just don't ruin yourself ;)

[mcpito]

chocolope is the nicest taste weed!!

[xXAeon89Xx]

where is this shop ? i'm going to amsterdam with a buddy of mine next week, i gotta know where this is ! :D the guy gave me a positiv energy just from watching this part... he is really devoted to the greatness of cannabis ! i gotta meet this guy and have a talk, he seems like a really nice guy ! :)

[adventuresineurope]

@xXAeon89Xx Paradox is near the Anne Frank House on 1e Bloemdwarsstraat 2. I love this shop. it's where I start my day when I'm in Amsterdam.

[TheKonrad1984]

good videos man ;)

[adventuresineurope]

@TheKonrad1984 Thank you.

[tolazytonamemyself]

ive smoked the cheese lol knocked me on my rear made for a great weekend with my friends though

[Frozenheroe]

Ludo, I'll see you in 10 months from now !

[humbleisthemeek]

I am truly envious.

[davesgcr]

Was here on tuesday , and this absolute gentleman served us with some bio , the space cake and lent me a pipe (free) - offered a bong also. Really love this shop in a beautifull area (near Ann Frank house) - huge privilige to smoke there in such a superb and caring atmosphere. 100% + customer care and quality. Bio lasted 2 days and had some "good effects"

[adventuresineurope]

@davesgcr We were also there a few days over the last week. This is where I start my day when in Amsterdam. Ludo is a great guy, very helpful and super nice...

[davesgcr]

@adventuresineurope

Nice to know we met the boss ! - a great ambassador , look forward to going again

[2edsajdmsa]

@davesgcr Couldn't agree more, they take very good care of you at coffeeshop paradox, and this gentleman is one of the kindest people I met in this beautiful city (and thats saying something!)

[2edsajdmsa]

The cheese from paradox was the strongest wiet I've smoked ever. The smell is something I cannot ever forget

[adventuresineurope]

@2edsajdmsa I had some Cheese from Paradox yesterday and it was great! : )

[BiteThis]

So the smoking age in Amsterdam is 18 and over?

[adventuresineurope]

@BiteThis Yes that is correct.

[Sarnarath]

@BiteThis

you need to be over 18 to smoke in any coffeeshop.

i heard about shops were you need to be 16 but this is the shops policy and its illegal by law.

[nirvie1515]

@Sarnarath

i am 17 i live in amsterdam and have been smoking weed since my 15th, you just gotta know the right people.

[hiddestoker]

[adventuresineurope]

@TheHashCompany Thank you! We will check boerenjongens next trip for sure. D

[gouryoku]

On the joint menu there is Chocolope and Pure Chocolope. Is pure Chocolope a joint without tobacco or what is it?

[adventuresineurope]

@gouryoku I believe "pure" is without tobacco.. D

[gouryoku]

@adventuresineurope Holy shit, that's an awesome price. Can't wait till I'm in Amsterdam.

[eatcuc]

[adventuresineurope]

@Peaceganjareggae Love the Cheese and the hazes... Thanks for the nice words... D

[DrBones666]

Excellent footage as always. Thanks to the whole Adventures in Europe gang for their effort.

[adventuresineurope]

@DrBones666 Thank you my friend... D

[rippinreefa]

Big D! Youre the man! Just a random question, what type of work do you do back in the states?

[adventuresineurope]

@rippinreefa I work in finance. Quite boring if you ask me. My trips to Amsterdam are what keeps me smiling... D

[fazed182]

i live in amsterdam and find many shops way over priced for the tourists.

well there are lots other places if you willing to travel to also get great weed at half the price.

also in amsterdam the cafes well one in particular are pressuring people to have to by soft drinks ect in there shops so much for the iree vibes

[adventuresineurope]

@fazed182 Thanks for the comments. Always nice to hear from a local... D

[prankmypants]

and with al0t 0f l0ve

[JahRed24x]

Big D do you like live in Amsterdam or something?

[adventuresineurope]

@JahRed24x No I don't live there, but I make the trip 3-4 times a year. I love Amsterdam! D

[TheRealSlaveZero]

Oh maaan... I literally started to drool when I saw the trunk full of amazing weed. I'm so frustrated not being able to roll a spliff and light it on a bench somewhere, but have to hide around like a damn junky... Well, I hope I finish studying Dutch and move there

[adventuresineurope]

@TheRealSlaveZero Great! good luck on your move to Holland. D

[DrBones666]

@TheRealSlaveZero YOu can't just light up on a bench. You're supposed to be in a coffeeshop or your home when you smoke. The police WILL tell you about it.

[keidun]

The painting during the first minute made me think of the song Martian Boogie by Brownsville Station.......Damn, I am showing my age.......Keep it on the high side, Big D. ....Looking foward to more vids.

[adventuresineurope]

@keidun I love that painting! It's been there for sometime now.. Keep it 420 my friend... D
