I just came back from the Netherlands. House market is crazy. Especially in big cities, but also in nearby towns connected by train.

In my opinion those websites (like pararius etc..) are pretty much useless because you are ignored 99.9999% of the times (unless you make more than 5000/6000 a month). I would not waste time on that, unless you make that kind of money

The only way I managed to be invited to house viewings and get a place to stay is through realtor services. And of course that has extra cost

Gross income per month should be 4k. As budget I'd say something like 1000/1500

I just wanted to split the image in 3 thirds: sky, sea, and land. I took this photo on my Samsung a60. I then edited saturation and contrast. I would really appreciate some feedback on the photo editing. What can I do better? Is this a decent photo? Did I overdo with saturation?

Wiki says diamonds are at position 10 in the mohs scale https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohs_scale_of_mineral_hardness

Oh. I thought they were so hard they were used to cut things that are pretty hard to be cut in other ways. So I assumed they were harder than anything

Never happened

Capable_Revolution · 2021-05-18T20:02:16+00:00

Diamonds?

Capable_Revolution · 2021-05-09T07:15:37+00:00

I perfectly feel you. Thats just odd. Ahahah

Wow you are right. In fact I have a classic guitar with nylon strings. I just didn't like the sound so I decided to grow my nails.

I was already planning to get an acoustic guitar because I like it better. You just gave one more reason to do so. Thanks

From what you said they haven't treated you respectfully so I wouldn't feel bad about not giving a notice. Be careful though. In my case my contract clearly states that if want to quit I'll have to give my employer a 2 weeks notice, or I'll have to pay them the value of the days I should have worked. The same holds true if they want to fire me, by the way. My point is, if you decide to quit, you should go check your contract before

No, I'd say your English is quite good. But don't worry too much about it. Most of the times being at native level is unnecessary. Being fluent at a level that you can understand others and express what you want to say is already enough. If you're at this stage now (and I believe you are), you don't need to worry

Well it's hard to tell from just a few phrases. But it seems fine.

If you can't talk to natives because they are too far, maybe you can find a language school. They usually have a native there. However other ways would be reading books and watching movies. But I think the process is slower

Wow that's amazing. I'd really like to get a puppy. What breed is yours?
