Do you like foot massages?

How do you take care of your feet? Have you ever got a pedicure?

I don't mind at all! Smoking weed is not as common as many may think actually :biggrin: in Amsterdam you can't walk into a street withou smelling it but where I live it's not that bad. Some guys from my school smoke pot but it doesn't make them cool really. People don't really care. We do a lot of memorizing too but that may be just the kind of school that I'm going to, other than that we do tests on history of Dutch literature for example (blegh.) I guess many Dutchies don't like their language because it doesn't sound pretty like french or some english, and because we have the most ridiculous expressions. A trainslation of one is 'Now the monkey comes out of the sleeve' by which normal people would say 'Ah, it is clear now'. See? :tongue: I am not high at the moment and would have no idea how that feels because I've never even smoked a cigarette before :smile:

Nah, I think Dutch sounds beautiful. But yeah seriously, who the hell invented that expression... he/she must have been high haha (joking)

No, not really. It tickles and I can't stand that. I clip my nails and that's about it.

Go ahead, I'm bored


Whereabouts in Holland is worth visiting? I've always wanted to go to Amsterdam because it looks really nice but are any other places worth a visit? :smile:

Where would you recommend people visit when they go to the Netherlands?? I've been to Amsterdam and Lisse (well, Keukenhof), and Maastricht give me some other cool places to go to!!

Do you get annoyed when people say 'Holland' instead of 'the Netherlands' or do you not care? :tongue:

Do you like the colour orange? :biggrin:

EDIT: Wow, just realised the person before me asked the same question :frown: was not there when i started typing out this post :/

Haha yes Germans are pretty much everywhere too! I actually live close to the sea so in the spring and summer the beach is ridiculously crowded with Germans who seem to have a strange habit of digging holes for no reason.

Nope, but definitely not afraid to.

If a friend of yours wanted to run his or her tongue along the soles of your feet, what would you charge them for being able to do so?

One of my favourite places in the Netherlands is Utrecht, the city is wonderful and has a great atmosphere. You should definitely go there sometime! :smile:
Does your name start with "Van"?

I would not allow it in the first place, I think it is quite unhygienic.

Let's suppose that you had just washed them for this very purpose...?

Do you get annoyed that some people only come to the Netherlands for the weed in Amsterdam and miss out on everything else like the sights the country has to offer?

Utrecht is really nice, and if you like theme parks you can go to the Efteling near Den Bosch (Den Bosch is also pretty nice by the way) or Walibi in Flevoland. Or Haarlem, great place for shopping :tongue: I mix them both up too, and technically I live in the part that's called Holland so it doesn't bother me at all :smile: And yes, I like orange.

Then still, do you even know how much germs a human mouth harbours? A lot.
