Taberna Holandesa: De volta
http://tabernaholandesa.blogspot.com/2009/10/de-volta.html
15 de outubro de 2009. Não consigo fazer o post de encerramento deste Taberna Holandesa. Talvez, um dia, quem sabe, volte aqui. Para já, regresso a Portugal e, sinceramente, com vontade porque as saudades, dos que amo e das coisas boas do meu país, são imensas. Deixo um até breve à Holanda de que gostei. 16 de outubro de 2009 às 14:21. Ainda nao conseguiste arranjar trabalho? 16 de outubro de 2009 às 18:29. Subscrever: Enviar comentários (Atom). Um widget para o Guardião da Taberna. A vida em Utrecht.

Headhunting | Ca Por Fora
https://caporfora.wordpress.com/2010/12/10/headhunting
A Portuguese living and working in The Netherlands. One of these days I was in the office and a colleague tells me there is a call for me in the company’s general phone number. Strange, I think…. 8211; A UK based headhunter saw my profile in LinkedIn;. 8211; As I don’t share my contacts in there, he looked up my company’s contacts;. 8211; He called my company, asking for me;. 8211; He offers me a job in another company. How sick is this? The crisis is officially over! Laquo; Life on a budget? Meu caro, i...

How a boring commute turns interesting | Ca Por Fora
https://caporfora.wordpress.com/2011/08/15/how-a-boring-commute-turns-interesting
A Portuguese living and working in The Netherlands. How a boring commute turns interesting. While traveling by train from Cologne to The Hague, I had the chance to overhear a conversation between a Dutch mother/son and a Chinese guy traveling in Europe. From the conversation I deduced the Dutch were well educated and traveled people. Context: the Dutch explaining Holland and Europe to the Chinese. 8211; “Holland and Germany are pulling the European Union”. Laquo; To spit or not to spit…. Nao acho que tod...

Knee ligament injuries – My story and advices | Ca Por Fora
https://caporfora.wordpress.com/2011/07/07/knee-ligament-injuries-my-story-and-advices
A Portuguese living and working in The Netherlands. Knee ligament injuries – My story and advices. Disclaimer: This is a warning to everybody who sprains his knee, based on my personal experience. Any problems caused by following my advices are not my responsability! I live in Holland and I injured my knee playing badminton, in December 2010. I jumped, landed awkwardly and twisted the knee. I could flex it and stretch it in the full range of motion immediately after the injury took place. I got to the fy...

Sharing files between your computer and your mobile devices | Ca Por Fora
https://caporfora.wordpress.com/2011/07/08/sharing-files-between-your-computer-and-your-mobile-devices
A Portuguese living and working in The Netherlands. Sharing files between your computer and your mobile devices. Recently I wanted to transfer photos from my Android based phone to my PC. I could connect the two through cable or try to do it via bluetooth, but I just didn’t feel like it. There had to be an easier way. Go to http:/ www.dropbox.com/. And install the application in your PC/Mac/Linux. You will have your account setup in the process. There are alternative cloud services from providers such as...

Reactive medicine | Ca Por Fora
https://caporfora.wordpress.com/2011/08/15/reactive-medicine
A Portuguese living and working in The Netherlands. I’m undergoing surgery soon, for a knee ligament reconstruction (details here. As I’m preparing for it I get to know in more detail how the health system works in Holland. A fellow Portuguese in Holland, summarizes it pretty well in a recent post. 8220;Medicine in Holland is reactive and not preventive”. I would only add that it cares more about costs than with the patients. And why do I state this, you ask? Laquo; How a boring commute turns interesting.

To spit or not to spit…. | Ca Por Fora
https://caporfora.wordpress.com/2011/07/20/to-spit-or-not-to-spit
A Portuguese living and working in The Netherlands. To spit or not to spit…. One thing that annoys me in Holland is a disgusting habit a lot of people have: spitting on the floor. Men and women, young and old, from all colors (spit and spitter), it’s a widespread habit in the country. I like to think it’s done by uneducated people but I’m not convinced about it. In my opinion, police should start fining these people. Spit once, 50 euros fine, spit twice, tongue out. There, problem solved. Maybe it depend...

28 de setembro de 2009. Ontem, lá chegaram as notícias das eleições. Vamos ver como vai correr o mandato. Parecia mal nãof azer referência às nossas eleições, se bem q não pude votar. Já não é a primeira vez q acontece. Sempre porque estou fora e longe da minha cidade para poder votar. Sempre que posso exerço o meu direito mas já são por duas vezes q não o faço, tanto pior ,já não poderei fazer figurinhas como as q faz o nosso PR em Belém. Subscrever: Enviar comentários (Atom).
