Look I like living here but THE FOOD IS SO BAD. Even in restaurants, it’s like they don’t care.

As a person who moved from Netherlands (studied there and worked for a year) to Australia to do my PhD and stayed in Australia. I can’t even begin to say how much easier my life became in an English speaking country. The amount of discrimination I faced in Netherlands daily for just being Polish just disappeared. I spoke English, so I also became part of the society. 10/10 would recommend

After living in Canada and Poland for years and now being in Amsterdam I disagree with most of the things that were mentioned. There is no perfect place and Netherlands in comparison with other successful rich countries is pretty damn good

The casual racism is sooo exhausting and I say that as someone from Texas. And many of my other poc friends say the same

speaking the language doesn't lead to inclusion. coming from a person who learnt Nordic and Scandinavian languages, it made absolutely no difference.

Oh, gosh. It's like you're taking the words out of my mind. I moved here from Portugal about 9 months ago and now I don’t know what to do. Going back to Portugal is out of the table. 😓

As an ecologist I kind of disagree with the nature looking the same. In my opinion the Veluwe compared to de Vliehors or even the Biesbosch are completely unique ecosystems from one another. However, I do agree that those small fractured forests spread throughout NL are all very similar 😅

Live here for 5 years, and I really understand your points, but I’m so lucky to be chill 🤭 from this list I really feel hate only towards “bad” things: like drugs and home crisis and racism. For all other I just don’t care enough (lucky me) 🤣🤣🤣
