To make a long story short for a car/taxi/bus etc its hard to say it was his fault(bicycle). The insurance will help most of the time a bicycle.

In the end its just a bicycle and he will get hurt.. but this you only see in the city center. The rest of the country is not like this... but this is everywhere in the world. Amsterdam is not made for cars in mind back in the days.. so all is a bit small.

I think a lot of other Amsterdammers would agree: Please don't rent a bike in Amsterdam if you're are going to use it for sightseeing. Because sightseeing requires a slow pace to take in all the sights. And we do NOT cylce in a slow pace. For us it's to get from point A to point B. So please sightsee by foot, boat or maybe tram. Also, if you get drunk or stoned, DO NOT RIDE A BIKE! You are severely endangering yourself and others! Sidewalks in Amsterdam can cause confusion. Because a lot of times they're very narrow but crowded. So a lot of tourists turn to walking in the road or bike lanes. This is very dangerous as was stated in the video. If ever you're in doubt about where the sidewalk ends and the bike lane begins: if you can touch a building, you're probably on the sidewalk. If you can't, you're probably not.

His first train there was delayed (and it was not because the message was announced in Dutch he knew he was back in the Netherlands). Oh wait... I did hear a Dutch guy say that trains were efficient.

Lennart is quite right, a lot of adults have the same Dutch English accent. This is because the teachers speak English with this kind of accent, and students take over like that. It has probably been that way since English classes started. However, younger people nowadays tend to have better accents because many schools see that speaking and listening is just as important as grammar and spelling and they will have people listen to actual English. In addition, due to the internet almost solely being in English, many younger Dutchmen will take over accents and vocabulary from their favorite channels or streamers. With my friends, we sometimes just switch to English seemingly without reason for multiple minutes of conversation without difficulty.

What about your fellow countrymen who use Holland? For it sounds better and it is shorter...

When we are cheering the national soccer team we use Holland. I live in the east of the country and we don't really mind. It's not like calling a scottish person english.

Im from the Netherlands too and those are some great easy-overlooked tips!! "Holland" sounds really really old-fashioned imo, "the Netherlands" sounds 100x better!

Nö, nö, nö...far too long! You can call yourself with this awfully long word (it's actually two words even), to us you are ze Holländers - short and efficient.

Why is you bike chain worth more than your bike... It isn't.. it might COST more it isn't WORTH more. A Dutchman without a bike is like an American without a gun

WolfdenGaming /Mavadelothe stereotype gets old and annoying really fast, trust me. same with how apparently we eat mcdonald's everyday. i haven't had mcdonald's, and even fast food for that matter in probably 2 and a half years

kylem1112 I think that's more because people like taking the piss out of Americans. And Americans are stereotypically fat.

Cool with me :) Appology accepted. I was equally disgusted with the comment.

As a Dutchman, you are absolutely right about the things you say. Thanks, great video. 👍

Tnx for making the dutch video's I really enjoyed it. Especially the ones in Haarlem, because I live there. Pls make more😉👍

00:52 Haarlem is in North Holland, not South Holland!

@@woltersworld : You are welcome. A remark, though. When you go to Belgium, don't stay solely in the flemish part of the country. Flanders is amazing and not only Brussels, Ghent, Antwerp... In the southern part, the landscape is different, the culture is different and even the food could surprise you. And remember french fries are actually belgian fries. Excellent work, thank you again

If you get the bill in restaurant without asking, most of the time it feels rude. It feels like they want to get rid of you.. (Belgium) Is it normal in US that after your dinner they just give it to you?

In most restaurant you have only 2 table switches on average for a dinner service. Some weeks ago we went to an Indian place, and we sat there for more than an hour after our diner, and nobody bothered us. They were still tables free so we didn't kept other people from taking our table.

It is expected that the servers in the US bring the bill about 15 to 20 minutes after you get your food. As a US server myself, I try to wait until I see somewhat empty plates or I will ask if they want boxes first, but yes, here in the States the check comes without being asked for.

These are amazing tips!

I would definitely recommend visiting Limburg province in the south (zuid) of the Netherlands very beautiful place especially in Autumn, it’s also the place of the highest elevation in the Netherlands even though it’s just a little hill. You can also be in 3 countries at once down there: Belgium, Germany, and of course Netherlands! Friesland is also a really great place, where you can meet the Friesian peoples (considered to be the first people of the Netherlands), also great to travel along the Rhine.
