    Please don’t. I’m extremely welcoming to foreigners but I really don’t like how many non-Dutch people move here and never bother learning the language. I don’t want bubbles of foreigners, I want an integrated society. I don’t want a bunch of international schools, public schools here are fine and kids learn languages quickly and easily.

    I know a bunch of people who’ve lived here for a long time as well who don’t speak any Dutch and honestly I find it a bit embarrassing for them. Imagine moving somewhere and not bothering to learn the language at all! I feel like you’re just showing your laziness and ignorance.
