Hi I am Amanda I come from England. Erik and I moved here last January 2011 love the quality of life here very different, love the people here, wages are hire but so is the cost of living, advise if you are moving abroad be prepared to accept the way of life in that country or dont bother it will not work out for you. lols x

Mon parcours
at the moment i am a house wife learning the danish language caring for my pets and doing my family history which has been quite interesting as the last few months i have traced it back to guess where denmark long story but interesting. I take my Dogs for walks and I am putting my C.V out but I do not think I will get anywhere until I speak the lingo lols
the country the people though very private people they are very friendly the space, the lack of cars on the road very relaxing to drive how ever you have to keep your eye on drivers as some people just do not have a clue what to do or how to do it lols every one is an equal here regardless colour greed or race or whether rich, poor, working or not, whether doctor or unemployed.
Lack of large supermarkets the fresh bread form the shops may be put out early morning but is in the open all day so rock hard by afternoon yet sold for the same price, packed bread is better last longer, the lack of health and safety i.e sell by dates on food and some of the veg and fruit are way past there use by date pizzas and Mcdanalds are terrible as bad as the ones in germany. pastry over cooked most of the time, so if you want to loose weight this is the place. like in germay you have to stand up to people but thats the same everywhere only difference is they do not get violent here, or rude the youth are more charming and respect their elders love that do not miss the bratts in england,
learning dutch at college and consistantly looking for work did not get me anywhere as with germany u need to speak the lingo. applied for citizenahip though my dutch was good it was not good enough to get the citizenship amazing i could tall people how and where to find something in a supermarket better than a local and direct people in cars if lost have conversations etc but no still not good enough lols
the country, shops, large airport schipol known as amsterdam airport
the arragance and stubbourn people that the dutch are can be nice but they are never wrong my husband is dutch lovely person but boy is he never wrong lols
