About


After years of travel subsidised by carpentry and B-movie acting, writer Steve Korver came to Amsterdam in 1992 to reverse the journey his parents made as immigrants to Canada. Soon he was a columnist, copywriter, editor/writer of guide books, and contributor to the likes of New York Times, Guardian, Time Out, McSweeney’s Quarterly, Condé Nast Traveller and The Globe & Mail on such subjects as food/drink, design/architecture, Yuri Gagarin, Serbian gangster kitsch and all-things-Amsterdam. He finally got his first real job in 2005 as editor-in-chief of the cultural paper Amsterdam Weekly. But after 175 issues and 14 European Newspaper Awards, 2009 was the time to return to his freewheeling and freelancing writing roots… Actually, it’s currently more about getting things a little less freewheeling.
