After living in Germany for a year and a half, I started to realize that I really missed the Netherlands.
Before, living in the Netherlands, many things were taken for granted. After leaving and living in Germany, I slowly began to notice things I wouldn't have thought about before.
The Dutch sense of humor, the more approachable interpersonal interactions, the workplace culture, the vlaai in Limburg, the food selection in supermarkets, the healthcare system, the internet, and… the Indonesian cuisine I've loved since childhood.
These things, individually, may not seem like big deals, but life is made up of these little things.
And some things even reminded me of Taiwan.
So this video isn't about saying "the Netherlands is definitely better than Germany," but rather sharing how, after living in Germany for a year and a half, I've started to miss the everyday things in the Netherlands.
What about you?
If you've ever left a place you've lived in for a long time, have you also found that what you miss most are the little things that you used to think were ordinary?
What place do you miss the most? And what do you miss most about it?
