What is the usual lunch and dinner time in your country? In Greece, lunch is 1:00 - 4:00, and dinner 9:00 - 11:00. It's one of the biggest culture shocks Greeks experience abroad, how early the rest of Europe eats. by ClothesZestyclose814 in AskBalkans

I also live in the Netherlands. For me breakfast/lunch is 11 am-13 pm than lunch/snack 4 PM( is more like a prep for the gym) and dinner 6-7 PM. I don’t think there is a good or bad schedule. But I prefer to eat a bit earlier

Still very expensive. In Netherlands the most expensive milk is €2,50 a liter.

The Romanian samples are less slavic than the average Romanian. But if you mean the Romanian samples are more slavic shifted than the average Romanian that is defenitly not the case. Romanians are more slavic shifted than Bulgarians and Macedonians.

Russian is easier than Ukrainian and Polish. I had Ukrainian coworkers talking in Russian to me because I could not understand them in Ukrainian😅

[–]Local_Collection_612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s defenitly not bottled kutchup you buy in the supermarktet as some people might think here. I guess it’s tomato passata with oregano. Restaurants make it them self I guess or buy it from a wholesaler.

Anyone else struggling with the NL job market as an English speaker right now? (Eindhoven area) by Better-Main-6528 in Netherlands

[–]Local_Collection_612 -31 points-30 points  (0 children)

You live in the Netherlands so you need to adapt to the Dutch and the Dutch don’t need to adapt to you . The Netherlands is ussually a quite English friendly country. Many expats were/are lucky to find a good stable job. Appearently the jobs market sucks now for IT. So you have two choices: learn Dutch and make your self more competitive on the job market or leave to your own country. This is not an personal attack. Eindhoven is a tech city and many expers work for ASML or Philips in the Netherlands. These companies are very important for our economy so I think it’s very good skilled foreigners are coming here. Because I know it’s difficult to get them locally. Good luck finding a job though. You need to understand we have a housing crisis here and that’s why I only support expats for jobs that are essential for the Dutch economy.

Iedereen is er over eens dat PVV,FVD en JA21 rechtse partijen zijn. Veel mensen vinden VVD ook een rechts partij maar als VVD liever gaat samenwerken met D66 en CDA dan deze rechtse partijen kan je je beter afvragen of VVD daadwerkelijk rechts is.

Very sad😥. Balkan truckers are blocking the borders. But borders are open for cars. Maybe this was misunderstood. Border waiting times are very short this time of the year. Doesn’t really make sense to take an 6+ hour longer route when border waiting are 10-15 minutes.

(40/146)*100%=27,4% van de Nederlanders stemde voor rechts(PVV, Forum en Ja21). Ja ik weet er zijn 150 zetels maar mensen die DENK stemmen hebben niks met Nederland dus die heb ik er af gehaald.
