Um...I don't disbelieve you Marco. Like I said, I was looking for cons to balance out the pros for moving to Holland.

Expatica is well-known in the NL expat community as a place here people who hate living here gather. Many have lived here 10+ years yet continue to stay and be miserable.titus wong wrote:Actually, I take whatever I read wherever I read it with a grain of salt. To be honest, I don't think any information gleaned from a forum such as this one, is any more or less biased than one dedicated to expats living in the Netherlands. To say that Expatica users are largely jilted lovelorn cranks would seem to indicate a definite bias. That's the problem with the internet -- it's like everywhere else. Or to paraphrase Yogi Berra: 'it's so popular no one believes anyone else any more.'
However, I'm not disagreeing with you. I was just looking for cons to balance the pros for moving to Holland. In that regard, I think the thread is still useful. At least it was for me.
So you can believe me or not, but Expatica is one of the most biased sources for information on this country.
