When I first moved to the Netherlands, it was a mix of emotions: excitement for the new experiences ahead, confusion in the face of so many changes, and a bit of nervousness about fitting in. It was quite the task to juggle adapting to a new culture, seeking the right job opportunities, and building a new social circle. All these challenges, while trying to stay true to my best self, were indeed overwhelming but also incredibly enriching.
Starting a new life here wasn’t just a physical move; it involved a transformation on many levels. Adapting to new ways of living, navigating the job market, and making connections in a new place – these were all parts of my journey that helped me grow and learn. And I was fortunate to have people in my life helping me along.
