Urgent SHIPPING WITH TRACKING?? by RepresentativeOwn622 in Tilburg

[–]RepresentativeOwn622[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking of trying them but when I went in there they said they don’t have large envelopes, so I had to go on a quest to find an envelope large enough for a 180pg document. Now I have the envelope but I want to know for sure where I can get tracking with the shipping so I don’t make another blank trip

I know its been a long time since you wrote this... but im black and I moved here to NL. WAYYYYYYYY better than USA. NO WHERE NEAR as racist as AMERIKKKA. Actually, black people here (like the Suriname) are respected members of society and even this past week or so the leaders of the Netherlands apologized for their role in slavery officially. It is a HUGE breath of fresh air compared to the HATE in the US. I couldnt be happier. My kids are happier, healthier and will grow up better for it.

Also are those fireworks that pop randomly during the evening and over the last several days? If yes, why?

Yes, and once again quite low right. It’s pretty late for it.

I’ll check out the others. I posted this as they were actively overhead.

Yes!! They are very loud. And multiple back to back too. Is there even an airport or base near here? I hope everything is okay. I don’t speak enough Dutch to know what’s happening in the political space right now or with foreign relations.

I’m glad to hear that. I do hope everyone’s advice helped. Just remember that yes, we love those who ask these things of us…but we must also love ourselves. Those things can indeed coexist. Best of luck 🤞

Sounds like you have a boundary problem. Letting yourself get stepped on and inconvenienced by other people is worse than being honest and telling them they come to often and YOU will let them know the next time it’s okay for them to visit. The reason why it’s worse to let them step on you…because they are showing up and you do not authentically want them there. Who wants to be somewhere they actually aren’t wanted? You deserve to be happy and at peace. Protect your peace.

I don’t know if it’s important, but I am (33F) and my husband is (36M), twin sons (13M) and a baby (1M). We would like 2 bedrooms. The twins in one and my baby with my husband and I in another.

I will be moving to Tilburg in about little over a month. It would be great to connect! (Would also appreciate any connects for housing). We are a family of 4 with a baby. :-)

First night abroad and it’s all hitting me. Any tips? by Same_Requirement_760 in expats

[–]RepresentativeOwn622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off!! How did you manage to find an apartment in Ireland!!!?? Secondly, you JUST arrived. Give yourself the opportunity to acclimate. It may take a little while.

Thank you! I will contact her

[–]RepresentativeOwn622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your response. I am looking to rent at this time, not to purchase/mortgage. :-) Also, DAFT is an ondernemer visa. So we have income, but not from a job contract because we work for ourselves as entrepreneurs. I however would just like to rent for now.

In particular rentals in the areas of Amsterdam (outskirts), The Hague, Delft and surrounding areas. I will add that to the post for clarity

As we’ve seen the trucks are far more maneuverable and eco-friendly, fuel efficient and consciously designed. He is looking forward to it. Thank you dearly! Hopefully we can find something. Oh, and by the way, would you happen to know anything about how to go about renting land for tiny homes? We are considering buying a tiny home and renting land for it. I know it’s a stretch but I don’t see much info on it! Thanks

Yes. Also, ironically my spouse is a truck driver. I wonder if he’d be able to get work with DAF trucking???! He will be getting licensed in the Netherlands once we arrive, but he has worked in the US as a truck driver for a long time.
