during my times in the Netherlands, i found almost everyone i came into contact with spoke excellent, fluent English- many even spoke with an American accent using American slang.
But when I lived in Paris, English as a second language was rare.
on a side note- Amsterdam was the worst city in EU city i ever had to drive in. omgsh- all those bikes! one time I was caught in a snowstorm in Amsterdam and that didn’t stop the bikers at all but I nearly had a nervous breakdown trying to drive in it- even when the roads were bare.
