Almost two months ago, I started a serious quest, looking for a job. Unfortunatelly, language barrier is a great mountain to climb. I need to be really fluent in Dutch besides that more than half of the population understand me quite well in English.
After walking a while,using my basic Dutch,getting in all the job agencies and receiving many hurtful comments like "Go home and study Dutch,be fluent and come back". I wanted to say something except nodding and say thanks for your time, I really wanted to say, go to hell! do you really think I will be looking for a poetsvrouw position(cleaning lady) if i had perfect understanding of this f...language?.
I felt and still feeling frustrated.Then I looked up,trying to see God, open the skies and see him to shout him "please, mercy,I really need a decent job,make a me a miracle"but the skies were grey and I only saw some Art noveau inspired buildings.
No matter how hard for me it's to live here, I'm surrounded by beauty and history..
Somehow focusing on the background than in the situation makes easy for me. I took some pictures..check them out..Oh, the first one from the right, its just nice but awkard combination between dutch style building('cos the stair like roof)and victorian style.
