    Those prices are sick though. Another fact that we can add to the list: you know you're Dutch when your parents pay for your driving license if you refrain from smoking until you're 18.

    Naah man I think if you're a fast learner you can get it within 20 lessons + exam + theorie = around 1050,-

    I see no mention of caravans, this must be a fraud.

    (At least half of this could apply to the French, or any Western European. It's pretty generic.)

    It's interesting learning about the Dutch people and their intriguing culture. I think the Dutch are highly intelligent, extremely adept and skillful at speaking multiple languages, and I think they like tulips as I've noticed they have so many tulips in the pictures I've seen of the Netherlands.

    Would you agree with these cultural differences between the British and the Dutch? https://dutchreview.com/featured/dif...e-netherlands/

    I've been reading some cultural articles I found and I've been trying to learn about the cultural differences between the English and the Dutch, as I take a lot of interest in learning about European cultures.

    Is it true that the Dutch are very direct and blunt, and are not reserved, tactful, or considerate towards the feelings of others when saying what they think?

    Good article, should be thread about every single European country.
    You get to know the people of certain countries.

    That's only in Holland. It's like saying that the English wear kilts because some Scots do.
