Personal comments
In the Netherlands, almost everybody speaks well in English, thanks for not translating the programs on the TV, using just subtitles, so you can solve all your problems and live easily there, without of Dutch language knowledge, but of course, in a longer term, studying the local language is an advantage.. Unfortunatly, language courses were not offered by the host university for international students.
