The Dangers of Internet Dating

Random trivia fact about the Funky Brown Chick: I speak Dutch fluently. I lived in Europe for a while — in the Netherlands for almost two years and in England for more than one. In the Netherlands, I studied Dutch, found an apartment, fell in love with my then-boyfriend’s family, got a job, moved into a house, got pissed off about Dutch racism, biked around like a maniac, contemplated never coming back to the US and eventually returned to my native land. I’m writing about it (for a book, not the blog). In the meantime, that’s a quick blurb of backstory to explain why I’ve posted a YouTube video in Dutch. It’s a funny clip and, you don’t have to know the language to get the humor. Enjoy.

ew. I always am amazed by those decide to live in other parts of the world and not think of Amurdica as the end all. What did you expect from the Dutch?

Love the changes on the blog. The photo of you is gorj! And I learned something new about you…you’re left-handed (and this fact doesn’t surprise me one bit)! :o)

@ Wonderlove: Yeah, the Dutch are special. Very special (and tall) people.

@ Not a Stalker: Thanks!

@ AmyD: More changes are ahead. I’m going to overhaul FUNKYBROWNCHICK.com yet again. Change is the only constant around here. I haven’t done the redesign yet because it’s too time consuming. I have a few ideas in mind, and I’ll implement them when I have time. (Psst! Creative web designers looking for new projects should email me.)
