    Maybe see if you can get involved with a nanny group in AMS. Like go to the park once or twice a week w the kiddos to meet up with some Nannie’s & practice your Dutch there with them. I still recommend having a tutor and taking classes (you will need it) but to exercise your speaking skills, I would go gather with some Nannies because they will most likely give you great perspective on the language.

    Have you heard of the "Consultatiebureau" in the Netherlands? Almost all kids up to 4 years old go there for vaccinations, medical check-ups and consultations for parents if you have any questions regarding your baby. Perhaps this could work for you as well? Love the vlog. Greetz from Amsterdam xxx

    As a Christian who holds my faith as the most important thing in my life, I resonate so much with the “not trusting your desires and what your body is telling you.” I was raised the exact same way and I think it’s so wrong. The Bible says the Lord created us uniquely and specifically with certain gifts and desires for our lives. Those are traits the Lord gave us Himself!!!! And I was raised to never trust myself, never listen to my own desires - and I believe we are to run to prayer with our desires but the Lord gives us desires, He gives us direction, so we must CERTAINLY lean into how He created us to be. I notice that’s a bigggg belief in boomer Christianity. And I honestly believe it’s off base in a large way. I agree we shouldn’t rely on ourselves or trust our heart for everything, the Lord gave us a brain, gave us a personality and gave us free will. We are unique for a reason!!!

      I am glad that some religions are shifting their language around this! And not only referencing Bible verses like “The heart is deceitful above all things” Jeremiah 17:9. I’ve dabbled in multiple philosophies and religions since deconstructing my faith and have found very similar themes of valuing lack of desire and not being attached to things, so I don’t think it’s only Christianity! It’s interesting though when I started digging into it more and wondering why a large organization would find it valuable for people (especially women) to not trust their desires and instead trust an outside authority…

    Aww, it's so sweet to see your first Amsterdam experiences! Your bakfiets practice moment took me waaay back to 2009. When I first moved here to be an au pair, the family had me immediately dive in to driving three kids around town (haha, in the middle of winter, WTF was I thinking?!). Just watch out for the tram rails and you'll be fine!
