After having completed a biginner serie ,which resources are available to get a solid B2 /C1 in dutch , i am
particularly interested in things to read and listen to , the ideal would be a website where it is possible to
download podcasts with audio and text like deutschewelle for German or lingq , are you aware of such
websites for dutch ? Other suggestions ?

LingQ has a lot of podcasts within the website. I use it often for most of the languages
I study.
Which course have you used so far?

Try Uitzendinggemist.nl. It's Dutch TV programming. Incredibly comprehensive, and a lot of the programs have
subtitles.

^Thanks for that link, (even though this is not my thread).
@albysky- I also really like Colloquial Dutch, it is a nice fun course.

Bbcatcher - Haha, no problem. It's such a great site. I want to make a sandwich board with the URL and just walk
around all day proclaiming its greatness.

I'd also recommend KRO, which is another Dutch site with a collection of shows
which you watch online. De Wandeling is excellent and Liefs Uit is also good. In regards to podcasts, if you type
Expat on Air and Hemelsbreed in to itunes, you be able to download their podcasts. The first is surprisingly
enough about Dutch expats in foreign lands and their experiences and so forth abroad, so some nice cultural
observations and insights to be had there. And the second is a Dutch podcast about Buddhism, which despite not
being a Buddhist myself, I quite enjoy. It's relaxing, easy to listen to and really they simply talk about peoples
ideas about life and ways of living, intermingled with stories, readings and the occasional wacky interviewee or
report about an event taking place. It's charming.
As far as reading goes, I find all my stuff online, given that I'm in Australia and finding books and things is
virtually impossible. I'd recommend going to Waarbenjij.nu which is a travel
blog site and reading some of the entries there, great way to find real current use of the language by 20 to 30
year olds. Or if you're into music check out 3voor12, full of interviews and
reviews and whatnot.
Veel succes!
