Dutch Class

Yesterday and today we had dutch class. My teacher had to go to a meeting today, so my class got split up to be with the other 3 classes. It was crowded! Fortunately, it was only for today (I hope). We are going through the dutch grammar and also how you greet people and present yourself. Yesterday was quite funny when our teacher sounded like a stereo on repeat; "Dag! Dag! Dag! Dag!". For those of you who don't know this yet, "Dag!" means hello (kind of...). Well, I'm not gonna be completely mean in this blog, I actually think it will be an interesting course. And naturally, very useful when you're supposed to live in the Netherlands for the next three years!

After dutch class today, we had Intercultural Communication. This is a mandatory course for everyone at the university (if I got it right), and how interesting it is! It's all about communicating with people from different cultures with an open mind and without prejudices. That is probably gonna be a useful course too, since I live with two chinese guys and their culture is completely different from mine. Also because The Hague is such an international city (almost half of the population is non-dutch!). But I'll tell you more about all that later!

Got to go, tot ziens!
