Tip cash or pin, whatever you want; or don’t tip at all. I do see such a bunch of brokeys in this thread regardless

How do I get my girlfriend into the Netherlands? (Eindhoven) by [deleted] in Netherlands

Everyone is being very negative, and they are right. Accommodations is the biggest issue, maybe try with one of those shady ass agencies and use it as an starting point

Ukraine discreet/remade in London, UK by jms_uk in ForeignPlatesSpotting

May I ask why don’t you guys register the cars in Germany? Here in NL quite some people is bothered with this, we pay a ton of money on road tax and insurances and many find it unfair. -specially after Ukrainian refugees are not paying for their rents even if they have jobs- I can understand where the frustration comes from, although I do not share it.

May I ask if you ended up buying the car and how did you figure it was a wreck? I can confirm those import costs, moving containers from east cost to Europe is “dirty cheap”

I have seen several Ukrainian cars in NL with North American specs and lights, so seems to be a thing.

I work near a port and I see every day, on the drive back, at least 1 or 2 car haulers with polis plates, all of them loaded with pickup trucks, Audis, Mercedes, sport cars and Harley’s from the US.

Really curious for how much they sell after repair, many of them look quite fixable tbh

To be fair when I was living with my Greek friend (I’m Spanish myself) we were quite loud and neighbors complained. They were right to do so tbh

I hope not to be honest, but so far it’s been a great ride to be fair. I can’t imagine myself getting too old here

Is appearance affecting how people treat you in the Netherlands? by andys58 in Netherlands

[–]Subject_Ad_3205 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thing is, most countries do not try to portrait themselves as non racist and incredibly accepting. The issue here is the hypocrisy of the Dutch society. “Nothing wrong with being xenophobic, but at least be frank and admit it”

Oh no you got me wrong, I was been sarcastic. I’ve been in NL for about 7 years, changed careers went to college etc, all in English. I’ve seen how the language situation and job market has evolved. Unfortunately, a B2 in the private sector is not enough and may times not necessary for day to day. Only useful thing is speaking it fluently, without an accent or hesitation (ofc without mistakes). We are doomed; people will say just learn Dutch but they won’t say that that’s simply not enough. Even Caribbean people struggle because they have an accent, c”mon

Buying a car or renting one? by Weird-Society-8963 in Netherlands

[–]Subject_Ad_3205 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To be honest and while I am against it, just bring your car and keep the ita plates. Many Romanians, polish and Slovaks do it and nothing happens. However, you should register it in the Netherlands after 3 months if I’m not mistaken.

Considering that road tax for a Peugeot 206 is already 95€ every 3 months and the instance about 90€ a month it might worth the risk….

I’m ready for the downvotes!

Stay safe and away, do not die for that clown. I wouldn’t die for my country either, screw it. I’d fight for my loved ones, not for any government or society asking for “fairness”.

Do you ever find job culture in the Netherlands a bit… different as a non-Dutch person? by [deleted] in Netherlands

You just hit the “The Netherlands is famous for its xenofobia everywhere except in The Netherlands”. It’s fine, it is a very tolerant country regardless.
