    I laughed also. What type American I was wondering ? Yes most speak English. It is a good idea to learn several words and phrases in the language of the country you are traveling to. Saying please and Thank You in the local language is a sign of respect.

    Trying to be funny w/the post's title eh?

    regarding the job.... It'll be hard since you are American. The US doesn't have an agreement with the Netherlands for US citizens to work in the Netherlands.

    Here is some amusing and helpful info if you are serious...

    You'll want to make a few or more trips there before you decide to move there.


    Good luck
