Settling In the Netherlands

Have not been blogging for the past 3 weeks. So many interesting things had happened and I have no idea where to start if I'm gonna fill all the blog gaps.

I'm now slowly settling in a town called Amersfoort in Netherlands. I've been in this country since 19th October, so far most of the people whom I met in this town are pretty nice and helpful, despite the fact that I absolutely know nothing about Dutch language.

UK and Netherlands have very different system in general, in terms of culture, lifestyle and even mentality, ranging from driving system, DIY rules (Blue wire is Neutral and Brown is Life, unlike UK), well-thought bicycle system, better garbage and recycle handling etc etc. Every single day I'm confronting new things and I'm sure I will have more things to adapt when I start working on Wednesday. Kinda of exciting to me so far and I'm certainly enjoying it.

At the same time, I miss London too. Such a weird feeling, I couldn't describe what I miss in London, it's like something is missing over here.

I guess it's because I'm only having proper conversation with my girlfriend for the past 10 days. Perhaps I need more friends !!!
