It actually got sent by mail? I always have to pick up my passport/ID card in person.

Note that this does not always apply outside of the US. For example, while Subway serves Coca-Cola in the Netherlands, I noticed that it served Pepsi in Norway.

I also love the Dopper and have one with me almost all the time. They seem to be quite popular in the Netherlands nowadays. Especially at my university, a lot of people have one. But then again, it's durable, cheap and convenient.

I basically lived frugal almost my entire semester abroad (Oslo is very expensive). Some of my go to dishes were:

I just came back from a semester in Oslo, where the cost of living is a lot higher than back home. I ended up making a lot of homemade pizzas, and made the dough completely from scratch (made a big batch and froze them) to save even more money. The fact that my favourite pizzas are either margherita or with ham also…

Might be interesting to ship the G710+ to the Netherlands. It's cheaper, plus I get a proper US (International) layout. It still kind of annoys me that my G110 keyboard has a smaller left shift-key and that the return/enter-key takes up two rows :/

In fact, if the product is EOL and needs to be replaced during warranty, you often get the newer version of the product. When my Logitech G9 died on me, I received the newer (and more expensive) G9x instead.

Deciding to skip this one for now, since I don't see any interesting games for me atm. Maybe I'll buy something at the Winter Sale next month.

Seems that out of the five, only the Bellroy Note Sleeve can be useful for me. Since my main currency is the euro, I really need space to put coins.

Not neccessarily. Within Europe, there are a lot of low cost carriers nowadays and the "regular" airlines are already struggling to compete on a lot of routes. Raising the prices will probably just end up costing them more customers.

I've landed on the Polderbaan two times so far and one of those was actually with KLM from Rome. The other flight was with SAS from Oslo a couple weeks ago. I'm actually taking the same flight with SAS in a couple of weeks, so there's a big chance I'll land there again...

Finally some clarity. In AMS Schiphol, I often had the pleasure to land on the "Polderbaan", which means it takes incredibly long before the plane is back at the gate. Fortunately, I haven't had delays up until now though, but perhaps I just don't travel enough (yet).

To be honest, I hardly use SMS anymore. Almost everyone I know back home uses WhatsApp. I actually like Hangouts more, but I don't know many people who also use it.

Even the regular web version of Google Docs is insufficient for me, since it misses some key functions I need. So its mobile version is definitely a no-go for me.

On the other hand, most bank card theft in Europe include acquiring someone's PIN as well. For example, a couple of years ago someone had managed to hack a reader in a Dutch IKEA so that bank cards could be skimmed and also registered the PIN. A more straightforward scheme is just watching the person enter his PIN…

A couple of years ago, most European countries switched to the chip+pin system. The first time I had to use it was in London in 2008. Wasn't until a couple years later that my country switched and within a year, everyone had to pay this way. But then again, all the bank cards already supported it, so the switch was…

Kind of looks like Futura imo

Too bad I only fly international from home (small country), which means shipping is often extremely expensive.

I thought they sold their (internal) HDD division to Seagate?

I was about 7 or 8 years old when I opened my bank account with my mum, since I had saved up a considerable amount of money. My mum also deposited my allowance in my bank account and taught me about money management.
