I'm a Spanish person living in the Netherlands for already almost 9 years. In one hand at some point in these last years, I started to feel like I don't belong in Spain anymore, and on the other hand, I think I'll never feel fully integrated in NL.
Any thoughts? Advice? Someone feeling the same?
Born in Portugal, but due to some traumatic events and childhood traumas, I don’t like living there. And just don’t fit in with their personality and lifestyle.
I live in the UK for 10 years now and honestly I like it here, and feel much better here than my home country.
Try having some local friends and reflect how you can integrate more. It doesn’t need to be a a big change. Just small changes.
Funny enough, there is a Portuguese singer that sings: “… I am well where I am not …”
I guess it’s the case for me, you and many people.
