Daughter lives in a flat on the ouderzijds Achterburgwal where I spent a year on assignment in Haarlem.

Cultural differences – you can never really finish talking about them, the Gallic shrug. Here in France, the Nordics are sometimes accused of being a bit too direct: ‘Is it yes or no?’ The Dutch, in particular, are sometimes seen as rather blunt and straightforward.
