went to Amsterdam a while back. the infrastructure there is dreamy. if I could choose where to live it'd be there

Moved from South Africa to the Netherlands about 2 years ago, I have gotten so used to the infrastructure I have a mild panic attack any time i think about how on earth I would get from a hotel to a super market if I go back to visit Cape Capetown South Africa.

I have gone from desperately fighting that I need the best car and I should be able to speed all I want to being happy to just hop on my bike and cycle to work never caring if there will be parking.

This country may as well be a fever dream and some day soon I will wake up back home.

please don't wake up I want the chance to live there at some point in my life before everything in your dream reality is erased from existence 😭
