Netherlands

A European country known for windmills, tulips, cycling, canals, wooden shoes, and being a significant part of the Low Countries.

Tips from the community

Living in Europe has given me the opportunity to travel a lot, especially when you're living in central Europe everything is around from 1 - 3 hours plane ride, which makes it very convenient. I visited Amsterdam around fall time! It was a beautiful trip! My number one tip, BE CAREFUL with the bikes! They are everywhere.
