Good evening to you @lesmann ๐๐ป๐๐
๐๐ป๐ณ๐
Thank you so much ๐๐๐ all doneโฆ ๐ซโ๏ธ๐ฌ next one probably will be an explore the area you want to move too, flightโฆ ๐ค๐ป๐ค๐ป
Yes, the Dutch people are very helpful and think about their neighbours. But this sooooo depends on the area you are in. They are good at talking behind your back and pretending. You never see who they really are in their homes, they have multiple masks for different occasions. I lived in the Netherlands for 28 years of my lifeโฆ and it changed so much. Not for the good though. Not sure if I could life there anymore. I probably choose somewhere else first.
The French were really great, and it was strange at first as we were not used to it. At the end it was just cool to greet others and spread some friendliness ๐๐๐ป๐
Back in Spain, people are pushy again, donโt have room walking by. In France everybody makes sure everybody on a pavement has space. In Spainโฆ nope, they rather bump into you than move a little, even though they have space on their side.
It is rather a contrast, being back now. And it so adds to our list why we want to move out hahaha ๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ
Yes, and people always will be different for government personal, military and policeโฆ in most countries.
But in the Netherlands it is strange, they donโt care about the police. And go into full fights and discussions with them. As they are not carrying or able to do something back. So some people just laugh in their face and walk on. When stopped by them. I have seen this many times.
Here in Spain they are afraid for them. Such a difference again. As they are rather brutal and hard.
US is a whole other storyโฆ.
The thing you see and encounter when you live in another country. But it gives you multiple viewsโฆ about differences. ๐ค
The home equivalent is a sachet of powderโฆ perfectly balanced. You just poor hot water in it after boiling it ๐คญ๐ hehehe lol but still it is great. Easy for home use. For sure donโt have any fancy coffee machine hahaha lol not needed and just adds up to more belongings. We need to reduce our stuffโฆ
You are welcome ๐๐ป anytime.
Thanks a lotโฆ yep Thursday morning already. Wowโฆ I did caught up yesterday with my notifications from the last 5 days that I missed. Now going through the ones of the night time ๐๐ค
Have a wonderful day today and enjoy your evening ๐๐ป๐โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ On my cappuccino now ๐ค
The "Two Faced" European, I myself have known a few. But The Dutch did seem far less so than Germans. And like You said, since the Police respect is low, they may not care. Or the working for U.S. (or being American for that matter), may also come into play....๐ค
Well I am going to be honest with You....
Americans are probably - Especially in the New Jersey / North East pretty rude. It was another reason I got away from there when I landed. Though I will admit that after this, I would rather have someone be rude to my face than plot behind my back.
Yes the multiple views will help - immensely!
Funny, I have also down throttled to "instant coffee"...
Mostly the same reasons, with a twist..๐๐๐
Enjoy Your Cappuccino's this Morning and have a Wonderful Friday!

They sure are, but these things you donโt see as a visitor. You need to live there for a bit.
I understand what you say. Yes, me too. Tell me in the face everything, but not behind my back. So I think it isnโt a problem when the are ruderโฆ in general. You do know what is happening at all times.
I think I prefer that. Than people trying to manoeuvre around each otherโฆ pretending.
Funny funny.
It is said that some people donโt respect certain things. Also the respect the older generation had towards the older people. I see this is disappearing. That is a concerning thing. Not good at all. In many ways.
It sure helps our multiple views from other countries. We can throw it all in the mix and show what we learned and how we evolved. It is good. Somehow it is like being a chameleon. You can change and adjust very quickly as you have the โtoolsโ to do so ๐๐๐๐ป
Hahaha you did tooโฆ hahaha funny another similar thing although it is a small detail.
Thanks, I had my first one. I think it is time for another one now. And some lunch ๐๐โ๏ธโ๏ธ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Be right back and follow the rest of my notifications ๐ค
Enjoy your dayโฆ hope it was a good one today!
Yes You Do!๐๐ค๐
Short term, you would probably never catch it. Cause Germans are "Super Friendly" when you first meet them. But to be honest, I also did meet a few cool ones, a few...
Yes the ability to "adjust on the fly" is good to have, especially if you move around. Most places the "this is me so deal with it", doesn't work...๐ค
Yeah I actually bought a Mr. Coffee, nice machine.. My roommates began using it for an island to set things on. Well for a few months I kept taking things off the top and telling them - if it gets broke, your buying...
Well I figured out the fatter one was playing a game with me so... I just said screw it! Then the other one bought a French Press and started making Coffee with that..
Well that Coffee could only be described as "dirty water",
So I went to instant..
Like a lot of things... I remove myself from their Sphere of influence...๐๐๐
I hope Your lunch was a good one! ๐๐ผ๐ฅ๐๐ผ
Take Care and Enjoy the Cappuccino's and Your Saturday!
๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐ฅณ๐คฉ๐๐คฉ๐ฅณ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
Yepโฆ when you meet, but they are also very hard and cold. I experienced. Very solution drivenโฆ
O noooo, never got in a place weโre that would work. Yes for the locals, but sure not for the visitors, travellers or newbies that move there. It is a process though and can grow. In either direction ๐
No they didnโtโฆ what an idiots. Sorry to hear that. People having no respect for other peoples possessions. Sounds like a game.
I understand that you went to instant coffee now hahaha easy to avoid the others.
And there sphere of influence. ๐ one day you donโt need to manoeuvre around them. ๐ค๐ป๐ค๐ป๐ค๐ป
It was good thank you so much ๐
Hope your day was fantastic ๐คฉ itโs weekend yay ๐
Enjoy every moment, that it be lovely ๐๐ปโ๏ธ๐ธ๐ผ
Well Your right there...
I had thought it might be left over from the War, and yeah they are Very solution driven.
You might be right there, never thought about it but it "is" locals that play the "deal with me card"...
Makes me think about something!
Ha ha ha! Maybe if one does this, they will think your normal "!
๐๐คฃ๐
They would here....
Yeah the fatter one (and this is part of how he got there) is a master manipulator, and thinks it make him intelligent. No, he has no respect for anybody's anything - except one screwed up friend of his... He will take your stuff and give it away, and get angry if you make him get it and bring it back.
Yeah the coffee machine became a favorite game if his, so I stopped playing.
Of course by now, I have done this with so many things - and I have, I really don't feel like I am living a life anymore... Just reacting to craziness...๐ค๐ค๐
I "Am" looking forward to that day that I don't have to do all the crazy stuff around them, it is tiring...๐ถ
I had my normal "Meditations" Saturday, so except not feeling too "right", very Mello day....๐ง๐ง๐ง
You have The Best of the Rest of the weekend!
๐โฑ๏ธ๐ฅ๐พ๐๐๐
Nope, not a left over, just that is how they are. My mom and her family was/ is the sameโฆ
And they doโฆ the locals.
Hahaha interesting. Yes, it could work, as it does there.
Sounds like a person to avoid altogether. But sometimes you donโt know that upfrontโฆ and you are trying to help someone. A sad case in many ways.
I soooo understand what you are saying and going through, the moving around them, their craziness. The not really living part as you are on hold until you moveโฆ
You will get there. Keep going. Look ahead. But not to far. Try still to enjoy the little things around you, when you are away from them. Those brighten up things. The flowers in the garden. The people in the shopsโฆ a birdโฆ or the cats. Anythingโฆ ๐๐ค๐ป๐ walk along the water line when it is cooler at night or the early morning.
Good you had your meditationsโฆ hope all is ok and your not coming down with anything. Or your mood is shifting the wrong way. ๐โ๏ธ๐ค๐ป
Thank you so much, I hadโฆ it goes to fast this weekend. But I still enjoy the little things.
Have a good evening!
Did you end up finishing the movie ๐ฅ Lucy. Or not yetโฆ
