Oh, those Dutch people !😮😂 They wear the devil in their pants!😮😂
I have a question sir. Have these laws passed? When will they pass? I will come to netherlands in 2 or 3 months time I plan to apply for asylum. How would these laws effect me?
Guys buying purses now!? Not in my lifetime 😂
@@pathfinder-eatingonearth1323 😂😂😂 It’s a very common thing where I come from for guys to have handy bags like the one I got in this video🙌🏾🔥😅
It's a journey... I love your approach!! Thank you for the video. Hope you find what fulfills you the most.
@@user-eu8jh4nn9o I definitely have faith I will find it🙌🏾 thank you for your kind words🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I thought there was going to be scholarships for international students cuz these amounts of money are crazyyyy. Anyway thanks so much for the vid it was helpful
@@halamutaz1712 I know right🙌🏾 With these amounts, you would imagine there are scholarships. But unfortunately, there are none at the moment
@@oxlegacy wait !!! wait a second! I found out about the UM_NL High potential scholarship yesterday. its only for Masters though. How much time did it take you to learn Dutch?
@@halamutaz1712 yes it does exist and it does cover mostly master degrees, the question is if it also covers the masters of medicine. Last I checked, there were specific master programs that fall under the scholarships
@@oxlegacy Yeah u r right ,I don't think it covers masters in medicine according to the information I found on google. But for those who wants to do masters in epidemiology or the other programs it offers 30 000 euros ....that's a good amount .
1000000000% we always complain about the weather
😂
Please i need your contact
Hi, the issue about spying has been around for a while. I worked at Twente university about 12 years ago and when employing phd students from Iran we had to get permission form the ministry of interior (chemical research) because they were frightend about nucelar research (but that was not what our research group was doing).
@@sabkirhar interesting. Do you have any idea why they are so scared?
@@oxlegacy In the case I mentioned it was the fact that Iran had/have a nuclear programme and where not working that well with the IAEA for control of their nuclear installations. So it was suspicious if bright minds from Iran went abroad to study certain specialities.
Made all the sense to me. I have an older sister who literally has 4 nursing degrees but does not practice nursing and she always jokes about how everyone else questions her about it except me. I totally get it and it takes a lot of courage to admit to yourself and to others AND also to pursue something that doesn't necessarily make sense to others. Super proud of you, can't wait to see all you do.
It really does take a lot of courage😅, thank youu🙏🏾 I’m looking forward to what the future holds as well🙌🏾
I've discovered your channel in perfect moment. Recently moved to NL, starting veterinary medicine in Dutch language, scared and lost. But you and your videos just hit the spot! So continue doing what you doing...you are the light at the end of the tunnel ☺️💪🏻🌷🤞🏻🤗✨
I can only imagine how that feels. Please feel free to reach out in case you need help or coaching through some things🙏🏾 Thank you very much for your kind words, they mean a lot💯🙌🏾❤️
Dutch people are very racist I swear
Nah fam never ate that for lunch you call this verkaasd in the netherlands
Haha no wayyy this is verkaasd!?!😅
Forever my inspiration !!
I’m honoured boss🙏🏾
Made sense to me! And definitely experiencing having to be comfortable letting go of past ambitions because they don't resonate with me anymore. I've definitely also made some decisions which didn't turn out the way I wanted it to bit there is that peace of mind as you said that comes with knowing you walked your own path, made your own decision and you're still a free man.
Exactly! Good to know you’re navigating your authentic path bro👊🏾💯
2 kcals
Factsss😂💯
HAHAHA I GET YOU I THINK THOSE TOMATOES ARE FROM LIDL I AM FROM THE NETHERLANDS TO ❤😂😂
Its never too late to try something new. People take on many different careers and jobs throughout a life time.
Yessir🔥🙌🏾
"Perfect" so enriching
I’m glad to hear🙏🏾
Courage my brother
Thanks bro🙏🏾
Love the transparency. I think a lot of people can relate to your story --- and it is encouraging. Thanks for sharing that with us, God bless you and wishing you the best in what you wanna accomplish ! Can't wait to see your new adventures. 🥳🤩
Thank you very much. I also can't wait to see what the next chapter has in store🙏🏾
Neger is niet hetzelfde als het Amerikaanse N*gger. De vertaling daarvan is namelijk nikker, een woord dat je in Nederland gelukkig bijna nooit meer hoort. ps: neger komt van negro, dat letterlijk zwart betekent. Het woord heeft dus absoluut geen racistische betekenis en mensen hebben er ook geen racistische bedoeling mee.
Read their history and you will understand what are you dealing with. The new Dutch PVV party leader is the exact reality of Dutch culture, attitude and mindset. 1. Don't read the history from youtube, Read it from reliable sources or your own. 2. Don't read the local comments, this is usual damage minimization to save face in their culture.
Do you have any recommendations for credible sources?
@@oxlegacy this link might give you some topics, but still significantly mild and toned down. Spend some time and don't read comment sections. You won't find something brilliant there. Dutchs consistently bash anything negative about themselves to gaslight reality but it is just making it worse. Also know that Dutchs are neither Aryans nor Caucasians. It's the same identity run. ruclips.net/video/UeuSt8RIYIM/видео.html
What happened to your head?
How do you mean? 🤔
This is not common in the Netherlands, the only places this happens are the small villages in the east or south of the country
Exactly, I have not experienced it up north as well. That’s why I was so shocked when I did in the small village
Ah dat is niet normaal meer hier
Nee inderdaad niet gelukkig, behalve als je naar die kleine dorpen gaat
Are you dutch by any chance? For my I have "micro agressions" like that against anyone who isn't jet a doctor who sits in to learn, and if that doctor speaks dutch in a foreign accent (amsterdams in maastricht) I would be doubly not getting what I'm expecting.
Oh that’s interesting. I am Cameroonian but I speak Dutch too. So you doubt if the care will be good when it comes from a doctor with a foreign accent?
@oxlegacy Well then he has a hard time comming as a lot of doctors are foreign nowadays here 😆
In netherlands they give every stranger this look, it's not racial orientated. Specially in the back of the land. In randstad they're more used to foreigners. Anyways it's not america, so you have nothing to fear here as a black man.
The back of the land.. man man man. Alsof het de 3e wereld betreft.
@@daveb1358 Maat, ben jij beetje ongesteld. Ga niet lopen te zijken joh.
@@daveb1358 gelderland en limburg zijn ze wel meer van de discriminatie en eigen volk eerst. Beetje apart om het 3e wereld te noemen.
Tuurlijk. Gebaseerd op welk onderzoek? Eigen mening eerst in dit geval.
@@daveb1358 Moet ik me eigen verdedigen voor iets wat iedereen hier in Nederland allang weet ? Om met je eigen woorden te spreken: man man man
We blacks have something special for "demand on racism", no? I am black who recently moved to Switzerland. If I had to make a RUclips video about my experience, it would be "Positives and Negatives of being THE BEST Student/Doctor/Engineer/Lawyer/Scientist in Zürich". I was victim of blatant racism in Switzerland 4 times in 5 years, it did not bother me much, because I knew the idiots who attacked me are just that...idiots, they do not represent the Swiss society. But I am sure if I was more sensitive than I am, I would have found many instances of "micro racisms" all the time and would make my case out of that. But I won't, I came here from Mozambique(one of the poorest countries in the world) to prove that I am Elite, the best. And no amount of racism has any chance against that.
I love that perspective, I really do because I can relate with a lot of it. I make videos like these to also really just inform others about some realities about life here. When I came, I wish someone had told me a lot of the things I had to find out the hard way. But thanks for sharing that🙏🏾 Are you still based in Zurich? Hope Zurich is treating you well?
Typical US victimhood mentality and race baiting on display. That's not the n-word. Neger is just the Dutch word for someone who typically comes from Africa. Just like I'm a "blanke" and people from the Middle East are "Arabieren". Quit wasting our time with BS made up terms like "micro aggressions". It's bad enough already that our universities are taken over by woke students and professors.
Dat is normaal hier
Ja? Wordt het vaak gebruikt?
@@oxlegacy op Wikipedia "Het negroïde ras behoorde volgens de antropologische wetenschap tot de drie grote rassen, naast het kaukasische en het mongoolse ras. De term is afgeleid van negro dat zwart betekent in het Spaans en Portugees, wat weer afgeleid is van het Latijnse niger."
Neger komt van negroïde, Negroïde komt van negro of niger wat zwart betekent. Neger is een alternatief woord voor zwart persoon. Ik kan ook aanstoot nemen aan het woord white, niemand is wit. Of blanke, terwijl ik niet eens een naam.heb vooriin huidskleur. Iedereen kan overal aanstoot aannemen. Maar goed, das persoonlijk
I'd say it's more like "negro" than the n-word. Still not a word that's considered appropriate to use anymore, but doesn't have the same obvious derogatory meaning.
Gap helemaal niet, gedraag je
I hear " micro racisms " ... and quit
I don’t understand, can you please say that again🙏🏾
Micro racism.....It's the language of the post modern university @@oxlegacy
It was too hot yesterday 😢
If you want African shops, restaurants and hairdressers, you should stay in Africa. You are in a different continent, that gives you the opportunity to visit and study. YOU should adapt, not the natives. Playing the victim of racism again: we,re soooo tired of hearing that! Grow up and get a life……Bro!
I guess if you can fit in in Limburg, you will have no trouble feeling at home in the rest of the country. Together with Zeeland probably the least diverse provinces. My wife considers everything past Amersfoort nice for holidays but not for living😅. Although Brabant has a pretty diverse population also. At least the bigger cities.
I think so too. However, some people I know actually love the peace and quiet of Maastricht and do not mind the lack of diversity there. It just depends on your preference
@@oxlegacy It's definitely preference, I just love diversity, especially when it comes to food.🙂
Thank you so much for this video. I am an African American who will be attending Maastricht in the fall, and I found this video very informative and helpful! I appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences, thoughts and perspective. You are much appreciated!
That’s great to hear. I’m glad I could help, I hope you enjoy your time in Maastricht🙏🏾🔥
Hahaha helemaal gelijk, grootste zeikvolk ter wereld
Ons gesprek begint over het weer 😂😂😂😂😂en klagen 😅😅😅😅😅
😂😂😂
You fit right in. Nagging about everything is an art here 👌🏻
I guess I have integrated nicely🤷🏾♂️😂
Bro it was 35 degrees yesterday 😭
I knoww, that was hatttt🔥
That’s why we are happiest country with happy kids 😂
😂😂😂
Haha you are so right, i have been fussing all day because it's too hot for me.
😂😂
This would be unintentionally funny if bro was from south africa 😂 #irony
Why is that?😅
hell yeah bro
Facts
1. is it compulsory that the first 3 years of the course will be english and last in dutch, is the whole not available in english? 2. i am confused about the study, grading system and also confused that do they provide practical knowledge in medicine degree 3. medicine there is a undergraduate program of 6 years rigt? 4, if i study in english will my degree will be written/provided me in english or dutch ? 5. will the degree of netherlands medicine be accepted everyhwere
1. That’s right, the whole is not available in English. You must do the last three years in Dutch. 2. I would need more context to be able to answer this question. 3. The undergraduate part is 3 years and there is a masters part of three years as well. So at the end you have a bachelors and masters in Medicine. 4. Your degree is provided both in Dutch and English always. 5. It will be accepted in all EU countries but I think you would still have to take exams if you want to work in America or Canada. But you can easily work in the UK too. Hope this helps🙏🏾
We do it in ohio
Word een beetje moe van al dat generale commentaar over ons wie de moeite neemt ziet dat we hard maar fair zijn😊
Yea most of us are hard working and loving and uplifting people. Let us complain about something out of our control please. 😅
You are so right my mom and dad do this all the time. But me personally I lovveee the rain.🌧️ Amazing video btw
Rightt! I personally have been loving the summer these past weeks🙌🏾🔥😅
Maybe we are not the people for you
Why do you say so?
jij zeker niet bijgoochem
@@oxlegacydon’t bother, as you said maybe part of our culture 😊
I’m from holland the weather here is manufactured chemtrails everyday
