The Netherlands!
Finally it happened! Yes, we have the Netherlands as an oficially part of the transition agenda for the first time!!!.Yes, we should practice what we preach... we are living in a country full of discoveries and unexpected behaviours The Netherlands as described by the lonely planed: " It's a country where you can get a sex change on the national health scheme, and where Hilde and her two dads can share a joint to celebrate that she likes boys too, why does the washing up always get done straight after dinner? The Netherlands has managed to combine liberal attitudes with one of the most orderly societies on earth, in a community which manages to be radical and sensible without being silly or staid. The Dutch aren't bogged in their clichés, even though bikes, dykes, windmills and blazing flower fields are pretty much the norm outside the major cities."
We are living it up together now... As for the kick off of the block, we had a game " Became a ducthie" where everyone had to answer obvious and non-obvious questions about the country where they will be spending 14 months.We have a parallel calendar of activities happenning the coming months and dutch classes are just one of them...
This is a brilliant beginning, specially beign a peruvian introducing them into the dutch culture.. Ok ok, yes Taco is supporting on this, but he is still dutching hismself.
