After creating a profile and finding hosts, I had to deal with creepers. Yes, somebody had to say it. I don't care how many people try to romanticize this notion that all is kum-ba-ya, you will encounter people who create a fake profile to meet potential hookups. I think you're looking for Grindr, buddy.

Noord Holland Part III: Haarlem
"Where are you going today?"Haarlem. Thanks to Rick Steves, during a late-night PBS binge-watching session I came across the Netherlands episode, which included Haarlem. What stuck to me was eating pickled herring and how it would be foolish not to rent a bike for the day. Mental notes. The way he described Haarlem was that it was where you went to for more a small town feel, to get away from the bustle of Amsterdam, and where tourists rarely visit. That's all I needed.
