Your friend with the master's degree in Poland hasn't been the first time that I heard a situation like that.

So easy and fun to read, with simple but moving notes. And any shout-out to Elliott Smith rocks in my book. Awesome job. Oh, this was great! So easy and fun to read, with simple but moving notes.

I can totally understand your statement "I am the only American, the only au pair choosing to work in the Netherlands for enrichment versus necessity. This makes me feel guilty and grateful.” Great to hear that other people's stories are as colored and enriching as the adventures my friends and I shared! And I still get to remember my Dutch from time to time.....so fun! I, too, was an American living in The Netherlands (Amstelveen) as an au pair.
