Reviews

[Dani]

A helpful little book. It's nice and small and can fit in your purse nicely. If you're going to The Netherlands and are going to any main city like Amsterdam--you won't need this. Pretty much everyone speaks English however, if you are going to be doing a lot of interacting with the Dutch, this is a helpful book for sure.
