„
1. Reducing or avoid stress 60% 2. Spend more time with family & friends 56%
3. Doing more sports 55% 4. Having more time for my own 51% 5. Eating healthier 45% Striking is that it becomes more and more important to the participants to do sports and to eat healthier.

A typical eatary, based on bagels with a great selection available. And also while there, get a healthy shake to go with it and wheatgerm on the side!! Based around the city wide, you have a great selection. Kathy, tourist in Amsterdam Great place for breakfast . You can find branches of this franchise concept all over Amsterdam as well as the whole Netherlands. A very lovely little cafe indeed. John, tourist in Amsterdam Offering not a wide variety of bagels with different toppings, but also yogurts with fresh fruits, salads etc. Usually the place should have also free wifi. Ana, tourist Bagels & Beans is a great little place to pop into if you’re looking to pick up a quick breakfast or a takeaway lunch. I stumbled upon the place on the way to the Museum Quarter, and managed to grab two coffees and two bagels with salmon & cream cheese for less than 10 euros. Vikoria, tourist

From a ferry to a restaurant The history of Pont 13
“
The ferry was built in 1927. Until the late nineties it was used for transport of pedestrians on motor vehicles on „the IJ“, the canal that separates the northern part of Amsterdam from the rest of the city. After this, the ferry was sold by the Amsterdam municipal transport company and was used for freight transport in the direction of Ijburg. A couple of years later, the ferry was offered for sale as scrap-metal in Zaandam. René Langendijk, the current owner of Pont 13, decided to buy the ferry an converted it into a restaurant.
