10x what we learned from Martien Meiland

Tomorrow evening it’s finally here: at half past 8 on SBS6 the very first episode of the second season of Chateau Meiland will be shown. A fresh dose of Martien, Erica, Montana, Maxime, Claire, Caroline and of course Bommel and Bijoux is almost here. And I don’t know about you, but I’ve kind of missed the stress, the screaming, and the whining from Martien. So to get into the Meiland mood: 10 life lessons from our Martien himself. I mean: wine at half past 10 in the morning? Why didn’t we think of that before? How goooood.

It’s always wine o’clock.

Especially say it out loud when you find something annoying.

And of course also when something is going really, really goooood.

You only get married… three times.

Take your rest if needed. Oh, and a moment by the pool is sacred.

A little swearing now and then is really refreshing.

Never go to the hardware store on a Saturday.

Always and everywhere keep speaking Dutch. Yes, haaaaaallo, bonjour. #prouddutchie

All you need is love.

Criticism of your work? Just let it go in one ear and out the other. You know better.
