I'm moving to the Netherlands in 3 weeks, and your channel has been such a guiding light with all the preparations for my journey; thank you very, very much. If I see you one day on the street, I will definitely thank you in person.
Keep up the excellent work, tot ziens!
You’re so welcome. I’m really glad my videos help in some way and all the best best with your move 🫶
To which city are you moving?
@@douwepouwe Hello! I'm moving to Eindhoven in two weeks, so cool!
@@manolocorp Oh wow! I actually live in Eindhoven!
@@douwepouwe Oh nice! Great match yesterday against Ajax; GO PSV!
Thank you for your information. I am doing a lot of research before moving to the Netherlands in June. I’m afraid because it’s a leap but it’s a leap I’m willing to take. I appreciate your input and outlook. Thank you again.
You’re so welcome. And I’m glad that my videos help in some way. I wish you the very best as you move and hope you have a wonderful time here. 🫶
I'm 72 years old and I'm still able to dance techno, house, drum & bass, disco etc. every weekend, after midnight. All youngsters (men & women) in the club are happy to see there, praise my dancing and are utmost friendly towards me. That makes me the happiest man in the world. Many told me that it makes them happy to see me dancing, so I contribute also to the happiness of other people too.
Please keep dancing 🕺. I’m glad it makes you happy 🫶😊
Hello! Love your channel! I'm learning Dutch before I move. I would love for you to include some Dutch in your channel. Ijs...❤
i should let people know dutch people are becoming less and less tolerant of immigrants so i should watch out for that because there’s a huge housing crisis
Love your sharp eye...
We nag a lot, it's a national sport. But compared to most other countries we're still doing pretty good.
Very important is to know what makes YOU happy. In the Netherlands people probably use more the principle : If I make myself happy I will be a nicer person to others. In respect of wealth: I do think Dutchies do not have to swim in money but they like to get their feet wet 😜 Most of us are content if they don’t have to worry a out spending money on life’s necessities
Hey Josphine, how do you think, comparing UK and NL, where people are happier and which country did you like more for living?😊
Happiness is dependent on your expectations in life. If you expect a lot more than you can afford you will never be happy.
Hmmmm. Thanks for sharing 👌🏾
@@josphineogugua you think your husband is happy with his current position or only when he is director. Think he's quite happy for now. But ik his aim is only the top he would be miserable in his current position. And I know he's happy 😊
@@josphineogugua can jou let your husband read this please.
I was thinking about the coating residu on the prints causing the fastbooks to get dirty and causing extra maintenance. Everybody is looking at the coating on top of the print but I think it's residu on the backside of the paper that causing the pollution. So not the topside of the paper. Just give it a thought and maybe talk to Robert about it.
Did you say you pay 850 Euros a month for health insurance?
No Deborah, 150euros.
850 what?😆 no way
@@josphineogugua oh phew 😅 that scared me. 😹
Uhmm, you really make some mistakes in logic. I do tend to agree with you that this report has a very weird operalisation of "happiness". But, you can't say that individual happiness counts in this report. That is not the scope of the report. It wants to measure average happiness of peoples, not of individuals. Although your thinking is good and I agree, it is misplaced here. And the keeping up with the Joneses and the tenacity is sort of being measured in the report, in "freedom to make life's choices". Again you propose a very different research. I found your analysis about people who do not want to please other people being happier. I thought about that, and I don't agree, I think. Imagine a country full of egoists.... Horrible to live in! But... I am critical of the report, It is a good research, based on incomplete premises regarding happiness. We agree on that. I would have liked to see other indicators, like prevalences of alcohol abuse, drug abuse prevalence, home violence, criminal behavior, mental health issues, voluntary work, etc.
yeah, i am not to sure about their measurement system too, but it is not at all a bad overview. it is statistics, and you cannot apply that to the individual. thats why quite a few will not agree.
Hi, this is a good question you have, in general i think we have it good, but like you mentioned certain things are happening worldwide, rents and energy, food prices, and we also like complaining :D
Thanks 🙏👍.😊
