What makes the Netherlands special...

Den Haag City by Trony Ingati

The Netherlands is a small country with lots of meandering ways to do things. One rule of thumb is keep it simple any day and any hour and you will thrive. This country has zero tolerance for fakes and for ignorant people. Why, because everything is laid out. There are no back doors, no cheats(a few) and the entire system just works and goes to sleep. In other words everything operates via a schedule. People wake up go about their duties and call it a day. My suggestion is to come in to this country with an open mind and relax. Let the system work itself above all find something to do because a typical Dutch person's diary is 366 days planned. So try to make your own plans because no one has time to babysit you in this country. You will have to make yourself useful once your past the age of two. If you doubt it carry out a census. I have more one paragraph musings for you...please pop by from time to time. This is my forum to express my ever growing Dutch palate and trust me it is tasteful.

No one will make you happy, Only you can make 'you' happy What is it that you want poor soul? Where do yo want to go? What gives you happiness? You alone know You alone can pen it down You alone can wish in the reality you wish to see You alone have power to re-focus your tomorrow So do that thing that sparks joy Find it at all costs Do it now... Do it well...Do it forever Create your happy every day dear soul

Any Topic Goes...

Yesterday I get into the tram and sat towards the front next to the driver. Its always my favorite place to sit. It allows you some peace and an ounce of quiet. In that very isle were a cute bunch of children from an international school in the Hague. Which one, I don't know. They described themselves in all manners. One was a parent, the other in a relationship, another a know it all. It was such a sight. These young fellows were in between ages ten and thirteen but the topic of discussion was 'relationship goals'. So openly, in the midst or rather elderly Dutch folk they described what they thought of sex, whether they had lost their virginity and how they share their boyfriends clothes and how to dispose them once the relationship ended. Alas! all in a tram. For a second I wondered to myself who are the parents of these adults trapped in children's bodies or perhaps I was the child. Before long a real teacher came along she smiled...

The 'NL' Driver

It is not that difficult to drive in the Netherlands. What is indeed difficult is learning to pull through strong like a maniac without running into pedestrians and bicycle users. That on its own is a skill. Whoever you hope will teach you this crucial, vital silk, I leave it for you to investigate. However, switching your road license from whichever country you come from will be a joy. To comfort you with the pain stacking process, the Dutch are very organized drivers and you will enjoy your driving experience.
