    I've noticed that Dutch people really like it when people from other countries talk about how much they like the Netherlands 😉
  • @AppleCore360
    I kind of love how the Dutch don't really care about how glamorous someone lives. But buy a sweet pair of jeans for half price, and you get bragging rights all day long XD
  • @myrrhsense
    Fun fact, bragging about money and designer stuff can kind of be looked down upon, as it is seen as superficial. When people get a compliment on their stuff, clothes etc. they love pointing out how cheap/easy/normal it was, as it makes the compliment seem more genuine☺️
  • @DjRenect
    As a Dutch person, it’s easy to take so much of what we have (or are) for granted. A perspective like this is a great reminder!
  • I was born and raised in the Netherlands. It's all normal for me with the bike paths and safety, but after watching your video I can once again appreciate how organized the Netherlands is and how neat it is here. maybe you could tell some differences about the Netherlands and Nigeria. and I am also very curious about what your negatives are about living in Netherlands! ❤❤

    I was born and raised in the Netherlands but my family moved to Germany when I was a teenager. This video makes me miss my home country so much 😢 I really miss the safe bike roads. I'd love to visit Nigeria one day too, as I wrote my bachelor thesis about a Nigerian book and have friends there ☺️ thanks for this video! 😍

    You are so full of energy, enthousiasm and you absolutely radiate. Welcome to my country, hope you stay a long time. Keep making videos. Love your points of view.
  • Another thing often misunderstood about Dutch directness is that it is only in the moment. Germans are equally direct, but if they tell you you did something awful, you know the will hold that against you in the future. Not in the Netherlands. If you bought awful shoes, we just tell you the shoes are awful, and than it is gone. Over. Done with. History. Fresh start. THAT is unique about the infamous Dutch directness. Many anglo-saxon and german people cannot understand this. They think that if you get such a direct remark, it is not only about the shoes, but also (a bit) about you as a person. No. It is about the shoes, nothing else. I agree that the same words can be rude. But then you hear it in the voice, the same words then spoken sharply, or sarcastically. That is true.
  • Giiirlll I just moved here from South Africa (and living in Mauritius for a little bit) and I LOOOVE it here as well. I don’t think people understand how good their countries may be
  • @sofienummers
    You radiate so much positivity ☀️ Thank you for this video and appreciating the Netherlands so much 😊 It's always a good reminder how lucky we are to live in the Netherlands 🇳🇱

    The Dutch are very funny! They are very friendly, use any excuse to celebrate with beer drinking. They "Baila malu pasa bon" which means, they don't care how they look when they dance, as long as they are having fun. And they are the most honest and helpful people I've ever experienced from any country. I love the Dutch!
  • @16MrMattie
    Hahaha I love your analysis on our patriotism, very sharp and true. Thanks for making me feel grateful to live here, keep it up!
  • @kd1309
    I just love your energy! Your appreciation of our country makes me remember to not take it for granted
  • @rul4522
    Being Dutch an 79 yrars old, i think the responses you got have A LOT to do with yourself!
  • @evelienepien83

  • The Netherlands 🇳🇱 is just a fun and beautiful country to live in. If I travel yes I enjoy new experiences but yet feel like there is nothing like home
