Are you a Netsky or Fred V & Graffix fan?
I will inquire with my RE buddy who just happens to be a second gen. American from Amsterdam.

@MrLee:
Thanks for asking around. I love the music, but i have never heard these artists. Here is one of my favourites: Zippyshare.com - Dyro_-_Live_@_Amsterdam_Dance_Event_(Escape_Venue,_Netherlands)_-_18-10-2012-www.mixing.dj.mp3
@Terry:
I have missed it, was a little busy eating. I had surgery last week, they removed my tonsils and it is a very painfull procedure when you are 25 or older, and it was the first night i was able to eat in a week. So i ate Black Angus Hanger steaks, pasta-salad, fries and tiramisu for desert. Man, it felt great!
The clip is really nice, but the channel is a bit awkward. It's called Omroep MAX and it's the 60+ channel of dutch television.
But on the other hand 60+ is probably a good target for some publicity. Yesterdays paper had an article about 60 to 70 yr olds in Holland care the least about costs of a holiday. My parents have been to the USA 3 years ago and are going again next year. (they are late 50's)
Is this clip made by people of your prospecting-school?
@B H Prospector:
Looks like a good place for the gold, and in a town of 68.000 you will probably have a few companies. I have been searching the web, but it feels like searching for a needle in the haystack. You ever heard of a company with 3-5 employees there? Even if you just have a company name or website it would help out.

DAMN... all my plans go right in the bin.
I just tore my achillestendon off in a game of badminton... Monday in surgery. 6 weeks in a cast, 6-8 months before i can play my beloved badminton.
So my plans for an internship abroad will have to be revised. Big bummer.

Surgery in 5 hours... they will take my little cast off, cut my foot open, stitch my Achilles tendon up and then close my foot down and put it in a cast again.
Let's hope fore the best.

Meurnik,
Just going through your posts. Welcome to tnet and this world of dreams. Sometimes they come true. The opportunities are big out west. Funny it seems like I'm selling something. Where do you sit in your real estate journey? By that I mean, what do you intend to do with it? Yes the markets have been hit hard out here, but with the right company or investors it hasn't effected as much. I know of several realtors who are doing good. They're always moving properties. Then there's the other option of setting up your own office. So that's why the question. I myself do drafting design on a limited basis as well as clean pools (my excercise). So I've got to know and meet several people.
Are you going for realtors license or are you wanting to deal more with finances?
That'd give me an idea of at least who I could talk to. Don't let your Achilles' tendon issue be a hindrance. However, at least there you'd have medical coverage. Free right?
I've got an aunt who married a guy from Denmark. He came here and started a flower shop, but now buys properties and then sales them. I might be able to get you in touch with him.
I'm a huge advocate of entrepreneurial enterprise. Being a new citizen of the U.S. would be a huge advantage for you in being able to start your own business. But if you'd rather work for someone else then that's fine too. Pm me if you'd be interested. Maybe I could help ya. Arizona is a great state. An hour drive takes you from desert to pines and mountains. Lots of places to go.
Ps: how did you hurt your tendon playing badminton? Must've been an aggressive game.

Hello Garret.
i have to do an internship of 20 weeks for my study Real Estate & Realty. My internship consists of researching local markets, researching financial feasibility or management of property (maintenance and keeping the real estate occupied) for a company. My dream is to have my own portoflio in the future... buying, fixing, selling or renting out real estate. I will PM you about this!
Then there is my foot....
Had surgery on it yesterdaymorning, and it turned out good. I was in lots of pain and got sick of all the painkillers, but this morning it was way better. Just got home, and started my
medical rehabilitation of 6-9 months.
Here is a picture of the move i made. In this move you jump backward and land on your left foot (if you are righthanded) and pushing yourself forward to get back to the centre of the court. It gets 8-9 times your bodyweight in force on your Achilles tendon.... in my case 9 times 89 kg's. So it snapped off.
Regards Meurnik

@B H Prospector
Thanks, i will take a look at them. And i will try to mend as quickly and good as i can. Need the tendon for at least another 50 years.
@Terry
How did you get in contact with them? Is your school quite big?
@Garret
Did you have one of these?
Bit awkward to be in a mobility-scooter as a 25-year old. Sure helps me out, i can go to all places i need to go.

No I didn't. They were concerned with my bone by the knee so they didn't give me one until the ortho dr saw the X-rays. Then he just put me in a space boot and let me use the crutches.
The scooter would've been cool. I could've taken that out detecting to carry stuff behind as I work my way to dig site. Lol

Too bad you didn't have one. I rented one and it is going to cost me about 500 bucks for 2 months, but it is well worth it.
@Terry
I didn't realize your business was that big. It's awesome to getcoverage by such big TV-channels on a hobby that turned into a fulltime job!

Good news, medical rehab is going great! 2 weeks after the surgery they changed the cast and i had a little look at my foot. It looks smaller and a little pathetic... :P Wound recovered neatly and is smaller (only 2-3 inches) than i thought. They changed the angle of my foot so there is tension on my tendon, that did hurt a bit and is annoying for a few days. But i am on my way back. At least 5,5 months to go before i can play sports on the old level!
New cast is pink, just for the fun of it!
Next one will be camo, so i won't be noticed in the woods!

Got out of dr office. Another week and a half in boot then can get out of boot and probably ankle brace for another couple weeks. Ughhh. I want to get back in the hills.
Glad to hear you're healing up well. Might take longer to get back to 100%. If he lets you start working on flexibility, then start pushing.
I've been pushing the ankle a bit in rotation and bending. Hoping to have the strength still for hiking. Or at least stumbling in the hills. Lol.

Good to hear Garret! Keep going at it! 
I need to pull my tose up as much as i can... and i take 1,5 to 2 hours a day to do it.
Will take about 5-8 more months before i'm back to my old level. Had only 1 beer in a month and quit smoking, so maybe this injury is good for my general health!
