The Netherlands is super safe, and most people speak English, so I could get directions if needed. And their public transport is amazing, it's so easy to move from city to city!

Posted: September 25, 2022The Netherlands is safe to live in every day. You have to see the beautiful houses with channels everywhere. The windmills are so beautiful, and let's not forget the tulips in the spring. Everyone here cycles, from 5 years old up to 80 years old.
