- My perspective of living in the Netherlands as an international has changed seemingly overnight. In this video I'm explaining how. I was inspired to create this video after my "6 reasons why you should not move to the Netherlands" went semi-viral back in 2020.

See you in the next episode!
Did any part of this resonate with you?

There's no voice more powerful than our personal critic. It has our best interest at heart, even though we sometimes misinterpret its meaning and place a far too big responsibility or burden on our shoulders. Acknowledging this and understanding there needn't be any self-imposed conditions for happiness is the true path to growth.
So good that it changed for the good for you! I hope you will stay happy here! 🙂
Thank you 😃 I’m really excited to continue with this more optimistic phase.
You graduated from TUE that is awesome, kinda jealous to be honest. Even if you didn't find the right path straightaway you *will* find it in the end. Whether it will be in the Netherlands or not that doesn't matter. Glad you spend some time with us and thankful for sharing your experience.
hi
Very happy for you that you seem to be happy now here in the Netherlands. Wish you all the luck and happiness you can get.
Great job 👏🏽 💕your videos
You really needed the introspection and allowed that for yourself! Que in the hallelujah choir ! 😂
Haha, thank you for watching!
Finally.... you've landed ! You've been putting so much energy in fighting the society and therefor struggling with yourself... and now look what happened: You've embraced Dutch society and happiness is upon you ! One more thing to complete your happiness: Learn to speak Dutch and more happiness will come your way!
Thanks for your comment! I'm actually fluent in Dutch, lol 🤣
You know as a South African who only has electricity for 12 hours a day been unemployed for 5years since there is no jobs at all and I am of the wrong colour , seen live shootings, been to a few funerals for people I knew that got killed, I would take your life at its worst moments anytime over mine.

Great quote! Thank you for sharing.
Have no job, and no income, my wife still has a job, but doesn't earn much.... living out of grace, count the blessings of every day :) And doing sidewalk astronomy, showing people the Moon and the sky....So I understand the worries of having no income :(
Thanks for watching! Send me a direct message ☝ I'll link you to something profitable
Congratulation for your business! :D
Thank you! I’m so thrilled and on track for 6-figures before the end of this year. 🥳
hello i need help
Thanks for your comment!
Hi
I'm from the Netherlands
hi
Haven't seen your previous video you referred to. But is not needed. You found your happenis in yourself. Although the Netherlands is (imho) a lovely country to live, it is ofcourse also not paradise on earth. This country has also it's flaws.
But having this said . When you are not happy with yourself neither country will .
Keep up the good spirit.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment!
And you might want to have a look at the rest of the Netherlands, Holland isn't the nicest part by far..
I used to live in Eindhoven and traveled quite a bit around there, very pretty places! I am super biased towards Holland though. 😄
I'm glad you found your life. In the past, you were very money-minded.
I would say I am still very much money minded but it’s being channeled in a different way. I was quite frankly worried a lot but after starting my own business I started to feel much more safe and in control. 😊 Thanks for watching!
Yo go girl!
Thank you! and thank you for watching!
4 yrs there and I left . Should have gone after 1 yr.
Sounds like you didn’t have the best experience, I’d love to hear how it was for you!
Good for you that most things turned out well at last.
Thank you! It’s definitely an interesting journey so far. Took me a while to understand it all.
Absolutely Gulce. It's crucial to look inside yourself first, change within and then the outside world will look different. 💫
As above so below
Yes! Took me 2 years to process it all but it’s so true.
@@MakingitinHolland sincere congratulations to successful transformation 👏
@@marias.3604 Thank you! I'm so happy that my content going forward will finally reflect this as well. 😃
2004. Till now means about 18 years. Education 10 years, research jobs/jobmarket 1 year and 3 years in various, eh, try outs. That leaves 4 years deciding what to do with your life. Not a stellar performance, hope you are healthy.
During those 4 years I built a multiple 6-figure business 😃 so, I think I’m pretty healthy!
18 years to find balance in your life, is a pretty good result, imo. It took me longer. Money isn't of the highest priority for me. As I try to teach my son, money is a means, not a goal. Although a 6 figure income makes keeping balance more comfortable ;-)
@@vullings1968 exactly, it's definitely a means to an end, and not the end goal in itself. But it's also true that when you feel a bit more financially free, you start to enjoy life more as well. :)
The moment you made yourself a type "A" is where you went wrong.
I’m quite happy with that now knowing how to keep a balance between life & business 😃 Type A isn’t for everyone, but it’s all about self awareness.
@@MakingitinHolland do you have a video where you explain type A?
Hello Let me introduce you to a platform that help me when I needed money to pay my bills and mortgage
:)
If you live in Amsterdam, go visit "Dwaze Zaken", and have a nice hot chocolate and apple pie, and look up Vineyard Amsterdam :)
Thanks so much for the tip!
