ashmoore - At least I'm not a cockroach

Like some Kafkaesque hero I am finding the only interesting thing I have to talk about is my successes and failures in navigating the water sodden Dutch bureaucracy.

So it is with great pleasure that I announce that last Tuesday I went to town hall and picked up my SOFI number, which is the Dutch tax number. This means that I am working in Amsterdam completely legally and my adventure with Dutch goverment functionaries is over.

For now...
