00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,684
Hi, I'm Eva, I'm from the Netherlands.

2
00:00:03,879 --> 00:00:06,060
I'm spending this month in America

3
00:00:06,093 --> 00:00:09,809
and the funny thing is that,
before I came here,

4
00:00:09,832 --> 00:00:12,797
I didn't really think the Netherlands
had so much as a culture.

5
00:00:14,468 --> 00:00:17,757
For example, when people ask
'What is typical dutch food?'

6
00:00:19,506 --> 00:00:21,197
I have no idea.

7
00:00:21,247 --> 00:00:24,293
You don't really have such a thing
as typical Dutch restaurants for example.

8
00:00:24,481 --> 00:00:27,288
And like that, there were
a lot of things that made me think

9
00:00:27,301 --> 00:00:30,580
"Actually, what's typical Dutch?
What are typical Dutch people like?".

10
00:00:30,590 --> 00:00:32,158
I couldn't see it clearly.

11
00:00:32,190 --> 00:00:35,453
And actually only when I came here,

12
00:00:35,487 --> 00:00:39,574
in a country I didn't think
was that different from the Netherlands,

13
00:00:40,243 --> 00:00:44,468
I started to miss things from home and
could I see how much difference there is,

14
00:00:44,498 --> 00:00:49,603
although the American and Dutch culture
are not that different from each other.

15
00:00:51,290 --> 00:00:58,179
And now I can hear how pretty Dutch is
and how nice Dutch people actually are.

16
00:00:58,300 --> 00:01:01,677
Dutch people are very... mm

17
00:01:05,269 --> 00:01:10,486
normal and pretty calm, I think.

18
00:01:12,190 --> 00:01:14,489
They don't long for much more
than they have.

19
00:01:15,013 --> 00:01:19,716
And I don't know, I think it's a pretty
nice little country after all.

20
00:01:20,189 --> 00:01:25,805
And it's funny to notice I couldn't see
these things beforehand.

21
00:01:26,265 --> 00:01:29,265
And now I do.

22
00:01:29,308 --> 00:01:30,855
(Laughter)
