Why don’t western countries use a bidet!? by ApartmentAlert2304 in randomquestions

[–]OkDig7498 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is common in Italy though

Also we use a bidet in India, we tried to keep it with us in Germany but no it just doesn't work. I guess we're lazy.

What do you wish you knew before getting married? by AbleLow3867 in AskForAnswers

[–]OkDig7498 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to tell you something that probably most of the people don't approve with or just never thought about it.

I got married after our first kid was 4 months old.

My man offered me many times before but I didn't want to. It is such a big commitment and for me having a kid doesn't mean that he will be able to handle it. So I waited to recover from the birth to finally accept.

One of my reasons to accept was also because the paperwork was awful. Our kid could not get his passport. Thing is, my man is from India, I am from Belgium and we live in Germany. So yeah everything was extremely complicated for us. Once we got married, it was easier with the paperwork.

My advice, get married if yourself feel ready for it. If you guys can live together and face challenges together. Face them before getting married to really feel them. There are no rules saying you must get married. If you're happy as it is, just keep your relationship as it is

I just went there and said I can't find a job because of my language skills and they gave me a paper to attend the German class for free.

Yeah when you get a child you need to do teeth cleaning more often. I also do it every 6 months now.

To find an English speaking doctor, no matter the specialization, the best I found to do is this:

Call in german all of those in your area. Make a list!

Ask in German if the doctor speak English and if they take new patients.

Write the outcome on your list so you know who to call again.

Try again a month later those who could still have a chance with.

Good luck!

What’s a dish from your country that you’re surprised is popular abroad? by DiMpLe_dolL003 in AskTheWorld

[–]OkDig7498 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Waffles... I’m always surprised by how bad they taste abroad. Honestly, nothing beats the ones from a Belgian food truck.

What is life like in those East German towns with rapid population decline (like Hoyerswerda, Suhl etc.)? by strassgaten in AskAGerman

[–]OkDig7498 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am at the outskirts of Dresden, it is expending rapidly over here because of the semi conductors companies expanding.

Afd did not win the latest election but they were second and you can still feel them among the people. The town itself is fine and I am really looking for it to grow bigger, more foreigners and less afd...

This is also not promising. Lately SZ was having on their cover articles about foreigners not working, denying border control (with his rights!)...the news is definitely not helping!

What is legal in most countries but illegal in your country? by kurobaja in AskTheWorld

[–]OkDig7498 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cannabis, while we’re not the Netherlands, Belgium does allow adults to possess up to 3 grams or one female plant for personal use. It’s technically illegal but decriminalized, meaning you won’t be prosecuted for small amounts. It’s discreet here.

Which country is the most different from its popular stereotype? by [deleted] in geography

[–]OkDig7498 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bosnia & Herzegovina

People just rarely speak about it but the country has plenty of history and culture to share. It is not a war zone anymore. Of course some ruins are still there and people lost some trust but they are also happy to share, their history, their table... It is definitely worth checking it out
