I was doing my laundry in Vlissingen, Netherlands and while waiting I chatted an older lady who was doing her laundry too. She told me her life story, where she came from, how and when she started living in Netherlands, her opinion of Netherlands and the Dutch people and her business.
She is a shop owner, three shops in all, where she sells weeds = marijuana - legally. I asked her how much and this is what she told me:
1 roll Euros 3.50 or 4.00
1 package Euros 8 (makes 3 rolls)
Did we buy and had fun? Nope!
Laundry for up to 7 kgs is Euros 4.00
Dryer Euros 2.00 just enough minutes to dry my one load
I like the words frugal, simple, logical, practical, freedom, honest/y, truth, compassion, kindness and these words are my guide in how I live my life. These words are also how I want to be remembered. I like cruising, traveling, sudoku, reading, tv, movies, cooking and spending time with my husband and children. In March 2001, my husband, our three teen-aged children and I migrated to Surrey, BC, Canada from the Philippines. It has been ten years since and Canada is now our home.
