Dutch nitpick: "Dampkring" isn't "Smoke Ring", it means "atmosphere". If you translate the two words separate it literally is moisture ring rather than smoke ring.

Vapor ring would be a better translation, right? Because “vocht” is moisture.

Yes I guess that is slightly better, but only for the two words read separately. The combination is still atmosphere.

This depressing account just made me wish the author could enjoy Amsterdam instead of work in that miserable coffee shop. Try a museum, visit a castle, take a boat ride, have some world class omelette. Like most other places, visiting Amsterdam is what you make it to be.
