Wow, this is by far the highlight so far of my time on UA-cam, and this is all possible because of YOU ALL. Thank you for watching and continuing to help the channel grow. For those who celebrate, I hope you had a great King's Day and I hope you enjoy the video!
Bro this video got randomly recommended to me but i gotta say ur enthusiasm is amazing. I believe u (this channel) has great potential! Thanks for this video!
Another beautiful video! Well done!
you're WELCOME!
Thank you! I'm glad the algorithm didn't let you down! haha
Thank you all!
This is one PROUD MOMMA!!!! Sam, you and Linde did a phenomenal job on this video. Who would have thought two years after moving to the Netherlands, that my son would be interviewing their king on King’s Day!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤congratulations 🍾 🎊 to you both!!
You raised a beautiful son mam, you have all the rights to be proud!
You deserve a lot of credit for raising such a positive, open minded and charismatic son!
I also enjoyed your introduction to our country a lot.
@@carolinavanderlande4904 thank you so much! It’s wonderful people like you that makes this
Country so special to me.
Thank you so much, mom. Love you!!
We neither! Unbelievable. Sam and Lin were the king and queen of the day😊
You're absolutely right. Het is ECHT NIET NORMAAL dat je de koning een vraag hebt kunnen stellen. Die kans is maar voor weinig mensen weggelegd. Mijn complimenten want je hebt er heel erg je best voor gedaan!
Mijn vrouw heeft de School voor Journalistiek gedaan en was programmamaakster en nieuwslezeres voor TeleCuraçao. Ze zegt dat jouw reportage, gezien de middelen die je hebt, een hele dikke 10 verdient want het laat perfect zien hoe Koningsdag in Nederland gevierd wordt.
Very well done Sam! 👍🏽👏🏽👌🏽
Dankjewel René!!! En ook bedankt aan jouw vrouw! Super mooie feedback om te heben!
fun fact, I spoken with him twice on 1 day on which I said 3rd time I see you you owe me cola which didn't happen but some months later I did spot and told him that and he was laughing as I think he remebered that. The King is a laid back person for sure. his security is just uptight haha
Hi from Rotterdam south side the netherlands i live there its was an awesom day 😊
@@eindbaaz3815 hahaha now that is something typically Dutch :D
I went to school with Willem Alexander and he is actually just an ordinary Dutchman, but the only one who already knew what he would become when he was born and that is actually quite special. I also met his mother and grandmother, both former queens, and they were all sympathetic in their own way...
Interesting!
My mom went to class with Princess Laurentien, i never seen their place, but the Princess and her family came to my house once, and also they were just ordinary down-to-earth people!
did you also meet his nazi father? tell me about it lol
His reply is why the monarchy is a good thing, even setting aside all the secondary benefits that having a monarchy grants you.
No elected official could ever represent the country as a whole, since they only represent those that voted for them. But because the king is not elected nor part of any political party he can be above political differences and represent the nation as a whole, a reminder that above all else we are all Dutch, and a symbol for what that entails.
Because of you and NotJustBikes I have booked a trip to the Netherlands and started learning dutch. Great videos!!
That’s great! Hope you enjoy you stay in our little nation.
Jack promes yourself one thing than, go see the Netherlands and not only Amsterdam. Amsterdam is not like the rest of the Netherlands. Hope you have a wonderfull time.
Wow! This is crazy to hear! If you need any tips or anything, feel free to email me! And maybe we'll see each other when you're here!
@@vanDeudekom er is voor de rest toch niks boeiends te zien/doen in ons land, al het leuke wat er te zien valt hier is in de grote steden 😂
@@vanDeudekomAnd might I add: travel by bike inside the Netherlands.😊
Even got a question in with the King, absolute legend.
My mind is still blown!!!
Ik had al een berichtje achtergelaten, maar mag ik trouwens nog even zeggen hoe gigantisch veel respect ik heb voor hoe je de Nederlandse taal hebt opgepikt. Ik probeer een andere taal te leren op het moment en het lijkt een onmogelijke taak, soms gooi ik alle boeken in een hoek en denk ik dit gaat nooit lukken. Ik begrijp nu pas hoe bijzonder het is om op latere leeftijd een andere taal te leren en te integreren in een nieuwe cultuur. Echt mad respect Sam!
Dankjewel!! :) Eerlijk zegen, ik vind het ook best wel bijzonder en ik ben heel blij mee dat ik kan met jullie allemaal in het nederlands praten! Als je ooit zou tips willen hebben om andere taal te leren, stuur me een email! :)
Really appreciate you speaking Dutch. Since almost everyone speaks English its really comfortable to just talk in English, but actually making the effort to learn the language, shows character.
Dankjewel!!
It's not just us who view your content what got you the press acces, it is your wholesome positive vibe in all your videos!
Thank you for these words!
Many would have stumbled when presented with the opportunity to ask the King a question, you however handled it like a pro with a fitting question. Well done man.
I really appreciate that! I just got lost in the moment haha
This was even a better highlight then the one on NPO live. Really great! Thanks for the good content you deliver.
Haha oh man, that's an honor! Thank you!!
You actually talked to the king !!! Thats just wow !!
I still can't believe it!
You did it Sam 🎉. You are really working your way up. I hope you can get a job in the tv business. You really have charisma. You bring the positivity people need. Almost 9K subscribers. Stay great! ❤❤❤
Dankjewel, Michel!!
What an amazing opportunity for you!! Congratulations to you and your girlfriend!! Awesome video🎉🎉!
Thank you!! Super cool to hear this from you two. Always fun seeing your experiences here in the Netherlands as well!
Hi Tammy and Eric!! ❤
Beste Sam, deze video is de KROON op je mooie vlogs tot nu toe.
Net zoals de Koning en Koningin zorg jij met jouw video’s voor verbinding. Nooit oordelend, maar altijd waarnemend met de nodige humor en openheid. Je geeft andere ruimte. Je bent een inspiratiebron voor velen. Gr. Rob
Wow! Dankjewel Rob!!! Heel lief van jou!
@@exploringtheforeign and that my vriend is not what you say to a dude as a dude, you would replace lief with aardig 😜
Haha
@@robpr9163 nee want dan verliest het z'n waarde, kijk naar de VS daar is het zowat een stopwoordje. Het zit em niet in woorden maar daden. En het probleem waar jij op doelt is een stuk complexer helaas.
@@eindbaaz3815 helemaal eens!!
I saw you on TV! I was thinking wow is that really him!? Exploring the Foreign made it up there ! how did he pull that off !??
Haha, oh man, this was soooo crazy! I hope you enjoyed the video :)
I don't really care about koningsdag or our king but the fact that you actually managed to have this short interview with him is pretty awesome and i don't think a lot of people outside of the mainstream media (even within the mainstream media) get this opportunity.
Thanks, Tike! I definitely don't take the moment for granted!
@@youtube.censor.not.reacting Well, you seem educated, that's for sure. I didn't deny that our royal family might bring some financial and/or cultural benefits, i just don't really care too much for the royal family myself.
Well Sam, just make sure you understand that you've achieved something which other people from the Netherlands never have achieved and probably never will achieve since interviewing the king is a rarity. Well done !
Thank you, Dutchy J! I definitely don't take it for granted.
As somebody wo lives abroad for more then 10 years and left the Netherlands when Beatrix was still Queen I did really like this experience and seeing my country and our King doing very well! Thank you for making this video and making me a little homesick.
Oh wow, I'm glad you enjoyed this, Natalie! As someone living away from home, I know how homesickness can feel, but I hope through the video you could still feel part of the experience! :)
Recognize the feeling, although I have been to both Queens day and Kings day a few times since I left, I miss it every year I can't make it.
Cool video! Love the content. Small correction, 30 april wasn't actually the birthday of princes Beatrix, it was actually the birthday of princes Juliana. When Beatrix inherited the throne, she chose to keep "koninginnendag" on the 30e of april. This was in honor of her mother. In addition, she also though that the weather was not as good in january. Wich, in my opinion, seems a good argument. Princes Beatrix herself was born on de 31e of january. Don't know if the comment was already made, but I thought you'd like to know. 😊 Hope to see more! Btw, I'm Dutch, don't know if you like your comment in English or Netherlands. 😂
Hey! Thank you for sharing this😃I was actually already aware of this and I intentionally made sure not to say that April 30th was her birthday, I was just trying to point out how that was the date for her "Queen's Day" celebration. But I could've made that more clear😃 en maak niet uit of je wilt in Engels of Nederlands schrijven!😃
Tiny addition about the naming of ex-monarchs. As you used correctly in your comment, when a monarch abdicates their title is reverted to being prince or princess, so like you said it is princess Beatrix. However when an ex-monarch dies their title reverted once more to being king or queen again. So you do say queen Juliana.
Hemeltjelief Sam, wat fantastisch! Dat krijg je als je goed geïntegreerd bent en dat heb je helemaal aan jezelf te danken! Hartstikke leuk om ook je mooie vriendin te zien, jullie zijn een leuk stel! Ben (nog steeds) apetrots op je! Liefs van Hil❤️
Dankjewel Hilde!!!
I guess its true that energy attracts energy! The King resonated with your vibe and decided to engage with you, that is a once in a lifetime moment right there! Very amazing! En Dit is by far de beste highlight reel van koningsdag!
Thank you!!!
Well done Sam! You and your girlfriend are King and Queen of the internet today! ❤🎉👏👏👏👏👏👏
Aw haha dankjewel Ingrid!!
Best video by you. The interview with the kids and parents was a very nice touch. Kudos to your lovely girlfriend for helping you, I’m sure it was a tough task. Cheers 🎉
I appreciate this so much!
Dat was echt leip Sam!! Geweldig hoe je je zenuwen hebt bedwongen en onze koning aan het woord hebt gekregen.
Ik moest wel hard lachen dat je "dankjewel" zei tegen hem 😂 dat is hij vast niet gewend 😅
Mooi dat je ons mee nam met je reis, hoe je pers toegang hebt gekregen. Mooie mijlpaal!
Veel dank aan je lieve vriendin, zonder haar was deze video niet mogelijk geweest! 🎉🎉 Petje af.
Dankjewel Nielsi!! Haha, ja, ik was niet bewust dat ik had de "u" vergeten, haha maar gelukkig was hij heel chill!
@@exploringtheforeign Haha, you did say "Wat betekent dat voor u". I bet he didn't hear the other "je". Don't worry.
Congratulations Sam, a memory that will last a lifetime
Dankjewel! En sowieso!
We in Holland are proud of this man, our king. Some people want a republic, but having a royal family bonds the nation with so many different people together. ❤ Alex and Maxima.
That's massive man!! Great stuff and hope you enjoyed your King's Day!
Thank you! I definitely enjoyed the day, I hope you did too!
Cool video. And you're officially press now 😉. What a great day.
Thank you!!
Still so crazy for me
This was such a great video, and your Dutch is becoming so great. Petje af hoor, geweldig gedaan
Dankjewel!!
En wij zeggen HATSEEE OVERFLAKEE EN DOOR
You interviewed the king?! I’ve never seen him irl before, I really love your vids❤
Thank you, Mauro! It's still crazy to think of. I'm glad you enjoy the videos!
I really enjoyed this, well done. Both of you. Touzani is a great guy, he has done so much good things for the youth . He is a celebrity here in the Netherlands. You were lucky to be able to ask the king something because there are so many people and as he said so much is happening at the same time that it is difficult to pay attention to everyone. You have made some awesome memories this day and a great story to tell your children someday.
Thank you, Alicia! Touzani was definitely super cool, and I don't take for granted at all the moment I had with the king. That was really special.
Wow, wat een super leuke video. Ik kijk altijd graag naar jouw videos omdat je met respect en positieve energie over jouw ervaringen in Nederland vertelt. Het feit dat je met de koning hebt gepraat is iets wat je echt zelf verdiend hebt.
Hi Sam en Linde, wat een prachtige video. Heb de hele tijd gekeken met een grote glimlach op mijn gezicht. Bedankt voor wat jullie hier gemaakt hebben. Deze video zou bij de NOS hebben moeten zijn. Wat geweldig hoe jullie Nederland laten zien door jullie ogen en op een positieve en niet oordelende manier. Jullie mogen echt trots op jezelf zijn. Ik ben het in ieder geval. Liefs en groetjes, Nicole Baaijens. Ja, de moeder van Eva van AYNIL 😘.
Aw wowww, dankjewel Nicole!!! Heel lief van jou!
Wow, een interview met de koning.
Dat is echt wel héél straf!
Wow Sam! Dat is zoo bijzonder! Wat leuk! Hele leuke video, dankjewel :)
Dankjewel! Ik vond het super bijzonder!
Wow! I am so happy for you, that must have felt incredible. Now you can look back at your time in the netherlands and say you chatted with the king 🤩
It was and still is mind-blowing! I'll definitely never forget this.
WELLL DONE MAN! So exciting you got this done!
Dankjewel!
Brilliant video! Official channels would be crazy if they didn’t try to hire the two of you.
Haha, thank you! Hopefully they watch this haha.
Great video, you deserve the success man! The people wearing black were doing it in protest of the wealth gap/poverty levels in Rotterdam. It is the poorest city in NL, many people struggle to afford the basics there.
Thank you! And thank you for sharing this information!
Nice, you meet the king of the Netherlands.
Thank you! I still can't believe it haha
Thanks!
Aw mom!! Thank you!!
Cool as Sam! I have been looking forward to this video! You are a bloody legend😃I will attend a big King’s Day Party here in Auckland tomorrow haha. Take care. Noho ora mai, Evan
Haha, thank you, Evan!! And enjoy your party in Auckland!
Zelden vind je een kanaal dat zoveel positiviteit uitstraald als de jouwe. Ik kwam je video over Urk tegen en heb daarna gelijk 3 andere video's van je gekeken en de manier waarop jij presenteerd is zo aandoenlijk dat ik niks anders kan dan met een enorm brede lach op mn gezicht kijken.
Wow, heeeeel erg bedankt voor jouw worden!
The King actually talked to the protesters too that day.
Hey man, amazing footage you shot here! It really makes me proud to be Dutch, seeing everyone being quirky and happy on a very special day!
Straight to the point, I have a suggestion for you for another video. You know 5 mei? Dutch freedom day. I'd really recommend you come to Wageningen this year or the next. It is in my opinion the most important celebration next to kings day, maybe even more important. We celebrate the day WW2 ended, and it was signed in Wageningen. It's a free festival, we have a parade with veterans and music stages all over the city. It is an amazing way and place to celebrate our freedom as a country and as individuals in a time of peace. I'd really like for you to come and see for yourself!
Thank you, Lexie! Really nice to hear.
As for 5 mei, if I do a video, I've been thinking of a few ideas, but I'm not 100% sure if I'll do it. But this tip helps a lot! Thank you for sharing, I can't guarantee I'll be there, but I'll try my best!
I knew it! I already thought I saw you on television! And I was right! So cool you were there!
Haha super leuk dat je me gezien hebt! Thanks, Thijs!
Dank je wel voor je leuke video! Mooi beeld heb je neergezet van Koningsdag. Blij ei ben je ook, das ook leuk om naar te kijken! Word je zelf ook vrolijk van. Nogmaals dank!
Super leuk om te horen! Dankjewel!
Ik was aan het kijken op televisie en zag je staan. Ik zette hem snel op pauze en vertelde heel de familie: kijk, ik volg hem op youtube!
En vervolgens zei ik: hij staat vlak naast de koning!! Echt, wat een geweldig moment voor je. Super trots dat ik dit allemaal live mag meemaken hoe je kanaal groeit en ontwikkelt. Nog even en ik kan tegen mensen zeggen: ik was erbij toen het allemaal begon met een klein youtube kanaal haha. Echt geweldig Sam, het is je gegund!
Aw man! Haha, dit is zo leuk om te horen!! Heel erg bedankt, and thank you for joining me on this journey!!
Hi Sam,
This is the best impression of the atmosphere during Koningsdag I have seen. The thing is that most other media, including the regular tv channels, just produce a registration of events. You somehow managed to capture the vibe. You've got a real talent and I'm sure your open personality contributed to the King actually answering your questions. I live abroad but this way some of the unique vibe got across. Well done and a big thanks!
Thank you so much for this! My mindset when making these videos is to just get an authentic/honest feel for whatever I'm experiencing and however it comes out it comes out, and it's really nice to hear that that comes through as a viewer! I really appreciate the words, thank you for watching :)
@@exploringtheforeign Also the same here. Because of being so far away and then get authentic honoust feel across is communicating actual whatś going on and happy memories from previous experienced Queensday for example that they still alive and revived.. 🎼It has been,, such a perfect day, Iḿ glad I spent it with you, O such ..a perfect day.. you just keep me hanging on, you just keep me hanging on..🎶(song of lou reed it says: thanks
ahh, this video is so well done! you did such a great job representing the day here in rotterdam. and you got to meet the king! 🧡
I also expect a Kings Day video from you guys 😅!!
Thank you!! I still find it insane haha. I'm about to head over to your channel and watch your video! Hopefully we run into each other soon!
That was a really fun look at Koningsdag! You managed to catch the mood well, as well as asking a question of the king himself. Great job, thanks and congratulations! 👍🌷🥳
Thank you!!
Whoa, just found you looking for information on Americans in the Netherlands and WOW, what an episode to start with. This was amazing. So much enthusiasm for the day both from you and the people of Holland. Subscribed and CONGRATS for getting that amazing interview with the King. Have your feet touched back down to earth after that?!
Hey, Peter! Super cool that you've found my channel! :) This is definitely a special video to start with haha. Thank you for subscribing, and I still feel in the air haha.
good representation of kingsday! I will send this to friends in new York who have no clue what this day means...
Leuk! Dankjewel Sarah :)
@EXPLORING THE FOREIGN I just saw a video about the, for us normal rules, when ambulances or whatever, needs to hurry. all over europe is it normal to park your car on either side of the highway. but we also do this on 4th of May, or with a death procession. and by the way it's also the law. I saw in that video that's not the case in america... the guy could not believe the highway parts like the red see! I think if people's lives are at stake, it's the only right way to do. is it true ambulances in US have trouble getting through traffic?
So cool! I was exited for you, when you called the King.😂 ❤beautiful registration!
Thank you!! :)
congrats 👏 This is the best highlights of koningsdag I have seen to date. You captured perfectly the essence of the celebrations. A once in a lifetime chance to meet and speak to the King personally too. My complements on this absolutely 💯 fantastic vlog of Koningsdag 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much, Abi!!
Supertof! Leuke interviews, laat goed de sfeer van de dag zien. 😊
Dankjewel!
You actually got to meet the king. awesome.
I still can't believe it!
it's actually so cool for me to see the whole process of being part of the press at an event like this, since I want to go into journalism. This report looks really good!
Such a great production quality you delivered again, keep it up man 💪
Thank you!
Congratulations on this major achievement. Its very well deserved. Keep up the awesome content and thank you for all the effort you put in every single one of them!
Thank you, Frank!!
For the protests, I get that people find it a bit outdated but I also think it is good to have a kind of extra check on the government and someone who is supposed to be the personification of the country as it does help in national identity. Also, I just love to party on kings/queens-day! It is such a fun tradition and with the deterioration of other traditions lately I'm all for it.
This is so awesome Sam! I almost cried when you got your interview.
😢😢 thank you, Auntie! Love you!
I enjoyed this video sooo much! What an amazing experience!! Thank you for sharing this with us!!!
Gracias prima❤️
keep up the great video's man, been enjoying most of them
Thanks, Damien!
This is awesome! Lovely video and an unique and once of a lifetime experience interviewing the King!
Thanks, Wesley!
Beautiful! My in-laws and husband would be so proud. They loved Australia but their homeland was the Netherlands,,🇳🇱❤️🇦🇺🌷
This was by far the best video of the Koningsdag I’ve seen on UA-cam! Great job man 👏🏻👏🏻
Wow! Thanks!
Wow, you did it! Ik ben er zeker van dat jouw positiviteit je nog ver zal brengen. That's what we need! Looking forward to more beautiful vlogs. Dank je wel! ❤❤
Dankjewl!! :)
Great stuff! The highlights are only going to go UP and UP!
Thanks, David!
You had a smile on your face the entire day! That brings smiles to our faces too. Well done.
Thank you, Michael!
Love every video of yours, Sam! You have this infectious positivity about you, always with a smile and good vibes! Keep it up, Sam!❤
Thank Sergey! Genuinely appreciate these words.
Superleuk! Goed gedaan 🤴🏼
Dankjewel, Jan!
Thank you for so much positivity! Ontzettend leuke rapportage, en gaaf dat je WA kon interterviewen. Ik ben vooral blij met jouw reportage omdat je respectvol bent ( anders dan anderen op UA-cam, die waren echt beledigend). So…. Kudos!!
Dankjewel, Lia!
Really nice to see how well you are integrating in the Netherlands. You are definitely an example that shows it is indeed possible , thanks for lighting bolt of motivation.
Thank you, Lamelle!
Ik voel de vibe met je mee! Geweldige sfeer daar, prachtig! :)
Super leuk om te horen! Dankjewel :)
You seem like such a genuinly good person enjoying every second of life, it is great to see your vlogs.
I appreciate this! I just try to make the most of each day! :)
Excellent work man!
Thank you!
Wat leuk!! Fijn dat je zo'n leuke Koningsdag hebt gehad!
Dankjewel!
Bruh you're making history 🤯💯👊🏾
Haha trying my best!
Hi Sam
I commented on your post when your mother visited.
Now I congratulate you on this video, in my home town Rotterdam.
This was a great video. How great you were able to interview king Alexander.
I wasn't too far away from you. Came in late, was standing next to the Markthal.
Unfortunately couldn't see much, couldn't hear hear everything, so great to hear it clearly on your video.
Your video shows the greatness of Rotterdam.
It is the largest blue collar city in the Netherlands. It is said it is the poorest city as well (but its obviously hidden poverty as it doesn't show, as many say it's the most beautiful city of the Netherlands, but I might be biased 😊).
The majority of Rotterdam nowadays has an immigration background; we have +180 etnicities. Our mayor is a perfect example: an immigrant of Moroccan, a Muslim and highly appreciated.
Regardless of your etnicity or origin we regards one another first and foremost „Rotterdammers". On Kingsday we are One Nation united under one colour 🟠. Keep them coming 👌🏽🇳🇱
Wow, thank you Fitz! And thank you for the beautiful summary of Rotterdammers!
We love Willempie!! And you Sam good job!!
Dankjewel!
Je woont hier al even dus je weet dat de Nederlander klaagt! Terwijl ze zo trots zouden moeten zijn op dit kleine landje ❤ ik houd van Nederland 🇳🇱 en ik ben ontzettend blij dat ik hier 69 jaar geleden geboren ben!!!
Mooi Jenny!
WIJ NEDERLANDERS ZEGGEN WAAARKE HUTSPOT VRETEN EN DOE MAAR NORMAAL DAN DOE JE GEK GENOEG
Thanks for sharing! You know that we have it good if we enjoy the special days as old days. Thanks for the Oranje Family to be in Rotterdam and bring so much happiness to people!
Thank you, Alexander!!
Good job! Great to see you guys enjoyed Koningsdag!
Thank you Wendy!
wow you both did it ,awesome vid!!😀
Thank you, John!
Really cool Sam you had this opportunity, I think you deserve more people following you because it's very good videos you made already.
Keep it up👍
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy the videos. Everything will grow over time🙌🏾 but feel free to share the channel with anyone that you think will enjoy😃
Nicely done!
Thank you!
Next level video my dude. You keep getting better, keep it up!
Thank you, Eise!!
Sure, in 2023 kings and queens may be relics of the past and there may be many valid arguments for why average citizens shouldn't be asked to pay for the lavish lifestyles they lead, but as a Dutchman (living in the Detroit area) I personally wouldn't want it any other way. I am proud to be Dutch and I am happy that Willem Alexander and his family represent my country as graciously as they do. Congratulations on being able to interview him. Love your videos.
Thank you, Hellmuth!
soooo cool Sam very happy for you!!
Thank you, Jonah!
Great idea to apply for press access. It turned into a very enjoyable video. Well done 😀
Thanks, Edwin! :)
Wat superrr duperrrr geweldig en toppie voor jou dat je de koning nog hebt kunnen spreken! Great video btw…
Je dag kan niet meer stuk topper!
Dankjewel!!
Mooie samenvatting en met veel sfeer weergegeven. Ik was er zelf niet bij want ik woon tegenwoordig in Canada maar dit voelt weer erg dichtbij!! Thnx!
Heel erg bedankt voor dit reactie! :)
@exploringtheforeign ik hou van je rustige maar enthousiaste manier van presenteren en hoe je iedereen met respect bejegend gaaf dat je de koning te spreken kreeg echt een unieke kans die niet veel mensen krijgen blijf doen wat je doet want je bent er goed in
Heel erg bedankt!!
Woww you really took your moment and what a good short but powerful interview! Compliments 👍🏼
Thank you!!
I felt like I just had to go for it then haha
You really captured the essence of Koningsdag!
I loved the shot of Davina Michelle counting to 4 and everyone jumping. And I got a litle teary eyed hearing "you never walk alone." Well done!
Wow, thank you, Claudia! Really appreciate this.
How fun! I've seen Alexander and Beatrix (the previous queen) quite a lot in person. They are very approachable people. My grandmother use to have chats with them on the streets decades ago. I love how their children went to a regular school, a princess lives two blocks from my parents and shops like any other person herself, the family tries to stay normal even though they are not. I am not pro monarchy per se (although the other alternatives are not better either), but I have to give them credit try are trying to be with the locals and stay connected.
Your a hero! What a great moment you had and what an awesome video, watched it with a great smile on my face. Keep them comming.....en zoals je zelf altijd zegt...wij dutchies zijn direct...ook in het positieve! :)
Dankjewel!😁
This was sick, and the question u asked him was just perfect👌
Thank you! :)
