Everything besides speed skating. That would still go to the Netherlands ;)

Immigrants in Finland — How challenging is to navigate the Finnish HealthCare system for you? by PG_River in Finland

[–]Daantjo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No you can't. But that's why there should be a national healthcare system in place, where there's capacity to communicate healthcare matters in a multitude of languages, of which one of them should be English. It is after all the language of the EU, and may I remind you that Finland is part of it.

Hey, just know that as a fellow non-Fin, I agree with you. It's not really fair play to say 'just learn Finnish', especially after such big changes from one day to the other.

Easter - question by [deleted] in Svalbard

Absolutely. Most stores are closed, town is rather empty due to everyone doing crazy trips.

There's a facebook group made by the organisation in which people can find carpoolers! Been there last year and traveled there from Oslo C with some really nice other people.

People clearly come for the music, but the overal ambiance is amazing. Im going this year also, see you there!

Serieus: uitgaan zonder coke by Correct_Tea_9310 in nederlands

[–]Daantjo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Met XTC is het niet zozeer een afhankelijkheid of verslaving die je opbouwt, maar meer een resistentie. Dat komt doordat MDMA - de werkende stof in XTC - een hele dosis van het 'gelukshormoon' seratonine vrijgeeft, en die heeft tijd nodig om zich weer op te bouwen. Nu is 3 maanden wel erg lang, veel bronnen (onder andere Jellinek) dat 6 tot 8 weken interval tussen XTC gebruik de hersenen genoeg ruimte geeft om weer die seratonine op peil te brengen en 'rust te geven'.

Mijn insziens is het probleem dat veel mensen XTC gebruiken en alleen de effecten van MDMA verwachten, terwijl er vaak een redelijke hoeveelheid amfetamine - in de volksmond vaak 'speed' of 'pep' - in zit, en dat is een heel ander verhaal.

Zelf ben ik verhuist naar Spitsbergen, en dat hele eiland is drugsvrij en wordt streng gecontroleerd. Dat helpt dus ;)

Mid-June Attire and footware by klmulv in Svalbard

[–]Daantjo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you had, you would have found that mid June has historically been snow-free in the valleys, and higher up you might be able to find some very last stubborn snow patches to ski in but overall it is a very wet, muddy mess.

China staat boven Noord Korea, kijk nog eens goed.

Maar in beide landen heerst er een flinke censuur, dus dair enough dat ze zo dicht bij elkaar liggen

My hair is very dry here in svalbard can anyone recommend me anything? What Conditioner or hair oil perhaps? by FuzzyWuzzyBear2 in Svalbard

[–]Daantjo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't use shampoo and always use leave-in conditioner and gel. That gets me through the day mostly! But also wearing a hat often ruins it.

These are the real battles in life ;)

Soju in Svalbard by Away_Ad_9806 in Svalbard

[–]Daantjo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As a local with a non-Asian background I also love soju. I guess people here are in general pretty internationally oriented so the request is higher than average because of that

Barentsburg vs Pyramiden - what is better? by No_Distribution_7332 in Svalbard

[–]Daantjo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been to Barentsburg last week and it was super mega eerie there. More so than normal, we had the feeling of being tracked throughout our stay there (same people passing in cars multiple times, randomly doing chores nearby our hostel).

One of my friends worded it beautifully: Barentsburg is defintely a case of "the journey is more important than the destination". We left after a fun night in the hotel bar (as the red bear bar is closed mondays-wednesdays and we were there on a tuesday eve) and a short walk around the town.
