I pray it is better than being black in America 😊

The advantage of paying relatively much on taxes. It makes life so much better when spent on things like infrastructure, education, healthcare. And that benefits the whole society.

I'm Dutch and almost 80 years and I live with my Dominican wife in her country. My typical breakfast is 3 slices of brown bread, with cheese (Gouda), ham and peanut butter. I drink milk or cola zero.

I wish you would become a surrogate for me and my husband- you’re such a good person and thank you for your wonderful shares. Be blessed

Well delivered❤

Would love an update since this is 2 y/o old. How is he doing? We have a 10 y/o coming from LA

Thank you so much for providing a POV as a parent of a young boy. I am seriously considering the move in a few months.

2:55 The train was so unexpected I started crying laughing for 5 minutes straight. Out all the things it's a train. Haha.

In the Netherlands panneloekenamd poffertjes are not breakfast

great video!!! but in my opionion americans need a dutch driver license if they wanna drive here. like you explained the rules are so different.

Right on red is really dangerous. Why put a red light at all when you can ignore it?

Poffertjes are often used as lunch on the weekend. I live in the Netherlands and we never used it as a desert. It also depends on whether you make them yourself or buy them from the store. Making them yourself is the best option because of the better taste. But it takes some time of course if you use it as a dessert you need less of them. But still, I personally find it too much time for a desert.

My biracial son has just had to deal with heavy racism here in Spain, by his own peers. They spray painted his name and racial slurs on the park equipment where the teenagers hang out. They punched him and hit him in the head, they have threatened him online numerous times. So we’ve decided to move to Netherlands, but I’m here doing my research to make sure this move will be good for him. We are from South Africa and never experienced racism there in either direction… so this has been quite a shocking experience for us, my son especially. Thank you for putting our mind at ease. Now to find a job so we can move as soon as possible. Coz for now my son can’t leave the house without me as they are always lurking around waiting for him. ☹️

I don't get how 'bread in a can' is weird to an American when something like Pillsbury canned crescent rolls are way bigger in the US, even being advertised during the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, televised nationwide to millions of viewers?

The Dutch don't interfere in people's personal lives. You can marry a man, a woman, black, white ....the choice is yours

I didn't understand when you said "people like me, you are American and you are not accepted in your own country. Is that it?"

Home births aren't the norm in the Netherlands, but it is much more common than in other countries, and there is a system in place that means it's just as safe as giving birth in the hospital.

She a pretty good dancer.

Pancakes is not breakfast.😂 makes him fat.

pancakes and poffertjes are not breakfast foods in the netherlands btw, it is a treat so you are being really nice to your lovely boy but normally he would just have bread, whole weat one cheese and one chocolate sprinkles and a glass of milk being very traditional, other things are eaten but on weekdays this would be fairly typical dutch

Best thing; NO SCHOOLSHOOTINGS! Welcome in the Netherlands.

In USA they think in black and white

We do not think in colours

What's it like to be black in the NL as though you're the first black person there. Blacks have been living in the NL since slavery, sweat heart! First all, you black women should stop crying about how the world is out to get you. Black women are not the only race of women facing racism and discrimination. The Chinese, the Arab and the indian women are all facing the same, but you never heard those making videos and crying foul. It's only our black women always. I'm s*ck of it!

Het spreekwoord is nu eenmaal: zoet sluit de maag 😁

Are you all still in The Netherlands? I hope you are well. Hope you can update soon ♥️

How is he doing at school and adjusting to that? We have a 6, 3 and 1 year old. Wanting to move but worried about how they will do.

You’re not originally from America

Zwartjes 🤮 altijd bezig met huidkleur. Stelletje racisten!

are you from kenya and you husband from usa?i saw you video about return to kenya

My husband and I have been thinking about moving out of the country more and more. The Netherlands keep coming to my mind. Thanks for this video.

Even small towns here are diverse.....there is no black or white thing. All we like to see is participation ( to a certain point) in the local culture. But thats not skin colour issue. Oh..racists are everywhere. And is a shame.. welcome.

Netherlands be like: what you're black ? Didn't notice....

Watching this just now and I felt your pain ❤. It took me back to my deliveries. Luckily you forget the pain, but still… seeing you it took me back.

Sounds like Amsterdam is no worse than Alabama or mississppi . Hopefully I could roam alone as a blk man and dont get bothered.

How come you call your son black? Wouldn't he be beige or Euro-African, while you're black and African and your husband white and European?

Did yiu write the inburgering exam

Although I didn't live in the Netherlands I had vacationed there. Me and my family were welcomed with open arms in Amsterdam and Haarlem. It was my first time there and I went with my wife and daughter. It was a great experience and the people went out of their way to make us feel welcomed. I would move there if I could. Beautiful country and the Dutch are very open minded.

That is scary...I am so sorry for you...

BS😂

2:20 That's because most people in Netherlands didn't bad experiences with people that look like you, meanwhile in USA its different.

It doesn't matter where they go, they're gonna bitch, whine and scream Racism! I got a suggestion: The "Mother Land" is calling you all back home!

Any new videos coming up?

Hi, do they actively practice Hygge there? I think that's where it started from. Can you flush the toilets there? Thanks for your informative video

2:33 when I have rice cakes, which doesn't happen often I usually eat them with a slice of cheese or cheese spread on top what your son says with chocolate paste...can also be tasty I think, never tried it actually

You were on edge????? THEN why move in a mostly WHITE area smfh.

The Dutch are pragmatists. They know that people like bums and titties. So bums and titties on tv is what you get.

Your kid is safe in the NL because there aren't many black males in the NL. The greatest threat to young black men in the USA are other black men.

I think it would be good if some of the myths die out, the US ranks only 90 on the list of ethnic diversity (the Netherlands ranks even lower that's true too, but the Netherlands doesn't claim to be a melting pot) and it would be good to understand in the US because of economics, let's say, people with their roots in Africa, are often stuck in the same neighborhoods. and we have that less here in the Netherlands, but still not as good as for example the UK (as I understand it) where social housing is often spread out very well over all the neighborhoods.
