6. Sure, it's all good for genetics--but forget about seeing any live music. |

one, two more years of a freedom you can't even imagine in the land of the free ;)

20. *g* - MissHoneychurch just left for a two-week vacation. |
|
How about right after that? If you can sleep on a matress on the floor you are welcome to stay over night at my place (otherwise I would get you a hotel room); the meeting taking place at the place where we keep our horses. Warm clothes and rain hat recommended since every time we BBQ this year it rains.

10. I already live in "Vansterdam". But hey, best of luck. |
|
It's a brilliant city. I'd move there in a heartbeat as long as the "work" thing was in order. In the meantime 60/40 Canada/France works very well for us...

I liked it a lot. Seems like they have a well functioning society. I'd be happy to join you. I'm a 40 yr. old Single Male from Southern California.

17. Just don't say anything bad about Islam there |
|
They have a large Islamic population over there, and two prominent people have been assasinated for criticizing Islam.
Sorry to spoil the praise of the Netherlands, but as a liberal, I utterly reject the sexism and violence associated with radical Islam. And the Netherlands has a large radical Islamic population.
