ICE CREAM SANDWICH IS A DISGRACE RO OUR BELOVED STROOP WAFEL

6th way Toasted are the best ❤

Belgian Ardenne, Ardennes are in France.

Who gives a shit?

You think that whe eat what you USA say whe eat ?

If concepts like dykes, dams, canals etc. are uncommon, then what do small kids play on beaches? We always build those things from sand, either leading water from an old fasion pump to a lake or building as close to the river as possible. Every once in a while you go too far and the waves from a cargo ship destroy your 'city' like a flood, after which you start rebuilding.

I enjoyed this and one other video. Because of time constraints, I have to get moving. Nevertheless, you get high marks for your useful content and beautiful landscapes. Keep up the good work!

De mazzel zeggen wij hier in het Rotterdam en Schiedam

Turn it up side down ;p

Houdoe.

It looks like a really nice place to visit. All the flowers look so nice 🙂 🌷 🪻

As a greenhousbuilder i work every day above these flowers all around the world and with our new type of greenhouse we going to build a lot in the US :) cant wait to visit your country again.

Yeah, "De Keukenhof" is a tourist trap, and then again, it is not. I never want to go since it will be busy, but when I'm there, I love it.

Hi, Are bikes free there ?

What about with the tornado sounds warning in the US

I've lived in the Philippines and comparing the Netherlands to the Philippines I feel the same was as you in general when interacting with people in daily life, people are just more open and easy to banter with in the Philippines. I still find Dutch people friendly in general though. I'm Dutch by the way.

Sorry the tulp is not our national flower. That's the dandylion.

The birthday circle is a form of politeness... I am Dutch, we all feel uncomfortable about it as well... But it is just not done to leave people behind somewhere in the back of the room. Every person showing up on a birthday has to be given equal attention... To be attended to... It is an equality/decency thing... Also, in the small traditional Dutch living rooms it turned out to be the most practical solution. Not in the least because, also in good Dutch fashion 😊, everyone shows up at the same time... Think of it like this..; it is not that different from a family gathering for a dinner in a restaurant... You typically want everyone in the party to sit on one, large table.., not one person having to sit on a separate table. To us, traditionally spoken, it is the same with a birthday party 🙂.

Charming lady ❤❤❤

What a lovely video ♥. Home is where the heart is and that doesn't have to be just one place.

I’m shocked that expats making this stupid videos.

Give yourself space, geef jezelf ruimte. It doesnt have to happen overnight. All is good. You will find your place…or places. Have a good one. Groetjes uit NL

Thank you so much for your sharing Marie 😊 I live for 7 years ago close to the port in Marseillan between Sete and Beziers not to far to Montpellier and it’s my favorite place

No visit to Skid Row? Or all the homeless in Venice Beach?

Super leuke video, ik ga eind van het jaar ook naar LA...groeten uit Suriname....🌴🌵

You are blessed. You have 2 homes. Totally different but you have them

Good video 👍👍

You have the best of two worlds! Enyoy! Love from Sweden!

I can know that the town you grew up in , always has a special place in your heart.

nice vid! try patatje oorlog.. sateh and mayo, with optional onions bits ordering with only sateh sauce is rare for dutchies

think most popular cargo for cargo bikes is little kids actually :D very popular in urban environment

To get to the coffee shop you need a car. I think a ride on a bike is better.

What are some of your favorite things about your hometown?

Elke plek heeft zijn voor en nadelen. 😊

1:10 Those steps are my absolute favorite spot to eat icecream from Ill Moulino which is located at the corner a little further still. If you haven't tried it yet, one of the best ice cream places in Utrecht, highly recommended. I am a bit surprised you were shocked about the flatness and low elevation of the Netherlands, I have to assume you did some research on where you would be going? Yeah, congratulating the entire room is appearantly typical Dutch as is the cicle celebration, no idea why we congratulate everyone. As for the cirle celebration. Dutch houses, especially old houses, tend to be small, it was just the most convinient way in "the old times", we kept it like that for years but it is somewhat disappearing. The younger generations tend to do the "mingle" style more. If anyone wants to invade my country... do it on the first monday f the month at noon and nobody will notice. Car go vroom, not bike..... Joking aside, those new style cargobikes are under investigation and currently even banned from sales if I am not mistaken due to some major accidents where bikes simply broke in half, in some cases with children sitting in them. I think it is the Baboe brand specifically. Dutch directness: Also stemming from our Calvinistic past. The Dutch in general have an attitude that is based on "Don't bulls**t me, don't waste my time, don't beat around the bush". If a question can be answered by a simple yes or no, the answer should not involve a 3 minute monologue (as example)

Well, once USA will start social developments, the shock they experience coming into Holland will not be so big; but with the left wing and a senile president....that may take a while. Besides: a war will start, as soon as the Americans understand the jokes we make about them....but also that will take a while....

1. It is always entertaining to me that some people don't feel comfortable when the land is under sea level (I don't blame them at all, intellectually I really do understand), having spent over 99% of my life that way. 2. I refuse to do that. I congratulate the one who has his/her birthday (maybe, if we are good friends, the partner for having to have "dealt with that idiot for a year" ;p). The rest gets a wave with a loud "Hi, everyone". 5. Open curtains are just to let in the light imo

Nice vid❤

I'm Dutch... And we never sit in a circle! As a child... yes, "we" did that. But I always hated it. And I don't know any people that sit in a circle.

3:50. Most European countries have that alarm test. It varies which day it is. In France, it's the first Wednesday of the month.

4:38 indeed, we also want to look out.

Dutch don,t eat two stroopwafels

As A Dutch person I think this is quite accurate although I did not know the stroopwaffel trick yet ;) I recommend fries with ketchup and onions or even mustard (mustard is supposed to help with the digestion of fats).

I'm Dutch and I live all my life in the Netherlands, but I hate Dutch birthday parties..

Regarding the bunnies, you should listen to Flappy.

Gotta love the stroop! Reminds me of Schiphol airport and being stuck there for hours on end coz of flight delays 🤭😊
