Book: You can learn to emigrate

The number of emigrants has been increasing for years. An increasing number of Dutch people are being drawn by a new perspective in another country. How come? Pessimists would say that this development is related to the increasing dissatisfaction with their own country. These emigrants choose to leave the ship before it sinks to face a better future in another country.

The writers of this book are anything but pessimists. They state that there is a big difference between people who tell casually at the cocktail table that they are going to leave for good after the umpteenth setback and people who actually implement it. They believe that the latter group has only positive reasons to leave. They leave because they see better opportunities for themselves in another country, for example in the area of ​​happiness or peace and to a lesser extent because of the finances. They do not leave at the expense of their own country, but to grow themselves. The writers of the book believe that the vast majority of emigrants have positive reasons to leave the Netherlands behind.
