Looking over the European City Ratings from Tripadvisor.com I had a laugh when I saw that Brussels was voted most boring European City.

So where did Amsterdam end up in their voting?

#2 after Dublin for city with most friendly and helpful locals, I'm a bit impressed.

#2 after London for best nightlife. Makes sense.

#3 for cities with best public parks, despite the fact that the one's in Amsterdam are fairly small.

The one area I thought Amsterdam deserved to do well in and they did not make the top three: Most Attractive Locals. Somehow Rome finished number one for that category.

Maybe I should hand out some trippist awards, based on my own internal polling.
