ctrp424 Behind the Coffeeshop Counter

When it comes to drug policy and coffeeshops in the Netherlands, we rarely hear the voices of those who work behind the counter and see how things work (or don’t work).  Nel has lived and worked in the coffeeshop world for over 5 years and in that time he has seen the daily routine of the cannabis industry and the politics that revolve around it. What he knows is not the political theater that so often gets reported on in the media, his story is the reality that somehow does not always trump the growing list of myths that surround cannabis in the Netherlands.

    Met Nel years ago at another shop, so happy when I stumbled across him in April at Utopia. Spent hours “annoying” him while he was bartering his wares. Fine man, very smart. Good piece, well done.
