I got 10/10 and I’m not American. I wish I was being interviewed by you, then I could’ve become rich

The Dutch equivalent of the Bible Belt

In NL, there are Belgian jokes, but friendly. In NL, you can buy a Belgian coffee cup with the handle on the inside.

Got 6 out of 10. Got the first US president, Tom Brady, first fast food chain and the official language wrong.

'Doe normaal' stems from Calvinist values. After the renaissance, the protestant churches were a big influence on Dutch culture, the same as the the puritin movement in the US shaped a lot of US culture. Vanity, pride as well as lazyness were frowned upon, although the value 'love thy neighbour' should have been their main guide, a lot of people were afraid of what other would think or say of them. People also being jealous of others talents and successes, as soon as someone successful falls, especially if they are boastful, their surrounding community would often secretly enjoy this, joke about it. This still happens today when famous people fall from grace. This we call leedvermaak or schadenfreude in German, the joy of others misery. A nasty remainder of small-minded religious influence in small communities. The 'cold war' called verzuiling (the breaking up of the population in religious and political views, noticeable in the different radio, tv stations and different religious sportsclubs) is something that only broke up during the advent of the internet, which enabled people to talk to people outside their 'zuil' (pillar, or same religious and social community).

im not Dutch but i do also like that, sorry. Its a just human behaviour

when i go to Lidl in Nederland not only people on the cassa but clients say you "Hallo" , i ask my self "what i done wrong , hehehhe". In Belgium they dont say hallo so easy.

"Ze praten altijd met jou", ja in het Engels. Ik vindt dat zeer irritant, moet ik zeggen.

Originally Dutch but been living in the US for a long time and now have an American accent. It really ticks me off 😀 when I go into a store speaking Dutch and get answered in English. LOL

Het is zelden dat iemand onze taal zo goed spreekt en deze niet als moedertaal heeft. Verslavend grappig! En ook mooi hoe je deze cultuur laat zien

Wat een leuke moeder Sam❤️. Mooie herinneringen zo samen. Koester haar 🙂

He pretends to be from bimma and takes him to smeltkroes to eat bijlmer food, tell me you're a posing yuppie without telling me...

Hi Sam, what a nice words from our neighbours and I like that you defend the 'drugs image', that is true in the way that's its quite easy to get, but most of us Dutchies don't use it even though some people from other countries think so 😂 Great content and enthusiasm you have. I think you are the right person to do these interviews. Impressed by your Dutch as well! Keep up the good work 😃👌🏻

that bridge you waited for is about 10 to 20 minutes , it is a controlversial bridge multible people already died with technical failures

I'm white and I grew up at Hoogevecht in the Bijlmer and although it was considered to be a unsafe place, i never felt unsafe. I had a great time growing up there. Kwaku festival great memories.

i know that 74.000 dollar in america earning a year is not enough! i earn 42000 euro bruto a year and we have a btr live!

True! But we always doing normal because if you get a lot of money or you dont have a lot of normal everybody is the same! No different and like you guys in America if you have a lot a money you guys doing big thinking you everything and porr people are ingnored

This video was hilarious! Im a child of dutch immigrants..these traits mentioned in the video are normal to me but may be different to others. I do wash my hands though

been going since the 90s black people being treated wrong as per usual when the plane crashed in amsterdam with chemicals aboard guess where it crashed ??????????????????? RiEP to all my Suriname peoples x

Hey man, I really liked your channel. I'll be getting in Netherlands with my wife on October,25, we'd love to find you in Amsterdam and make an interview like that. That's so cool

You should do this again in Holland, Michigan.

Not to mention......een lekkere Broodje poep!

Holland is a getto narco state every one knows it 😂Howe you question about danger ⚠️

What the flemings think of the dutch people .

This is my episode growing up in Groningen and now living in Arnhem. Good stuff.

Wat heb je een lieve moeder. Ze had meteen de echte Nederlandse ervaring met het weer, haha.

Het klinkt altijd heel lief als Duitsers Nederlands spreken. Ze halen de hardheid er een beetje uit.

I love our Belgian brothers and sisters. Belgen hebben betere humor.

Interesting stuff! Recently also thought of going to Urk from Amsterdam, but the travel time by public transport (2.5hr) put me off. On the other hand it's probably good for the authentic feel of the village, because everything in the direct vicinity of the city gets overrun by tourists.

Je hebt een talent om met mensen om te gaan. Ik kreeg al zweethandjes bij het idee om in m'n eentje zo'n ons-kent-ons kroeg binnen te gaan lol, en jij doet het gewoon en maakt nog vrienden ook. Zo zie je maar, met een positieve, vriendelijke en beleefde instelling kom je zover! Daar kun je trots op zijn.

We are direct as a mf'er ! But middle-class and cristians are not!

Compliments on your Dutch! 👌🏻

When Dutch people say that American small talk and niceties are "fake", are the Dutch suggesting Americans just "put it on" when they are talking with the Dutch and then stop with the small talk when it is only Americans are around?

Yeah, but the thing is, Belgium is not only the Dutch speaking Flanders but also the french speaking Wallonia. Go there and ask about the Dutch and you’ll get a slightly different to put it mildly perspective.

In most elementary schools, the kids level is assessed over their entire school period (i.e. the full 8 yrs). I think the fact the secondary school is differentiated by level is a good thing. You are not choosing the type of job you pursue at that time, only the level is determined based on ones capabilities. As pointed out by others if you are a " late bloomer" you can still climb up the ladder to get the higher levels of secondary school that open te route to enter university. Besides, even when you go to college (HBO) you can still do a masters at a university afterwards. If I look at myself and my own children, it has helped to attend secondary school at the appropriate level.

boy ju jii spreekt goed Nederlands ❤❤❤❤ SLAVA EUROPA AND UKRIAN AND EM❤❤❤🎉🎉

unfortunately, the younger generations are picking up on the "Keeping up with the jones" mindset, and theres an increase in materialism among the youth.

The whole narrative and history as been told about the Bijlmer is FALSE, if you want to know the TRUE history you should ask the people that have been living from the start and have been witness to to the complete evolution of the area, all the horror stories about the bijlm6arr highly exaggerated

Without the belgians, we dutch, would never have developed the way we did over the past centuries.

You speak good Dutch for someone who has been living in Netherlands for just 2 years.

I think the NL is also the only country that uses stork (ooievaar) in front of the house as a simbol of a new baby for the family.

When I was in the NL the word that I remember: "Regel is regel". In many countries people bend the rules little bit For example if you come 6:00pm and the shop is closing, the person closing it my let you in; but in the NL you the person will tell you, the time of closing is now, so sorry! the rule is the rule (In Dutch: regel is regel). That is not a bad thing by the way - it is a culture which usually leads to dependability.

I also talked to some dutch people, and they were actually proud that they don't wash their hands before/after toilet. lol

Netherlands look more modern than Germany because of its progressive outlook to life.

Du hast gesehen es war brutal ghetto vorher but Jetzt is RICHTIG die best Viertel Netherlands. Der BANLIEUES in frankreich ist immerhin so brutal und ich schreibe seit jahren dass die BANLIEUES in frankreich soll genauso wie bijmer gemacht werden oder besser und die Reisenden und falsch geheim schwül macron hast es versprochen während seine zweite Amtszeit campaign zu transformieren aber bis heute null sondern der kämpfe mehr um Kolonialismus. Der würde jetzt geschämt die böse kleine schwül

Waar bemoei je je mee? Dan ga je toch lekker terug.

Als een Nederlander is dit echt super interessant om te kijken! You are doing a great job making videos❤

4:44 song

I am Dutch. A german said to me about difference "wir sind ja allen babaren" An Englishman said that Dutch people are like Germans "with" a sence of humor.

You mentioned very recognizable things in this video! As a Dutch person, I think you're also quite mild. I would have said it more sharply.
