What Dutch Teaches You About Yourself
Learning Dutch isn't only about mastering new words or pronunciation. It's also about discovering who you are when your language, your main tool to express yourself, suddenly disappears.
There are stories that go beyond a film. Stories that become part of a country's shared memory, familiar to everyone, no matter where they were when they first heard them.
In the Netherlands, Toen ik je zag is one of those stories.
Learning Dutch doesn't always happen with a book in your hand. Sometimes it happens on the couch, when you're watching a football match or a Formula 1 race and suddenly: a few words start to sound familiar. You don't know how, but they stick.
