I hail from the Netherlands but haven't lived there for decades. I visit regularly, but I am not familiar with lots of things related to culture or politics or the various "systems" and how things are done. <br /><br />I speak the language perfectly so I'm expected to be a normal Dutch person, but then in the store or bank or where ever, something will be said or expected of me and I have no clue what they'e talking about. They look at me as if I am an alien, and well, guess what, I am. Sort of. So I always tell them, sorry, but I've lived abroad forever and I don't understand what you mean. Makes me feel like a foreigner all right!Miss Footloosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15601892611652195901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417784322197275588.post-23236054294409764462010-08-06T12:11:52.385-07:002010-08-06T12:11:52.385-07:00I can understand what you must be going through......I can understand what you must be going through...the continent feels "different" to me...<br /><br /><br /><br />Aloha from Honolulu :) <br /><br /><a href="http://comfortspiral.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Comfort Spiral</a>Cloudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05853753108637831069noreply@blogger.com
