In the university as the language of instruction was English, we could speak easily with all students and teachers.
Outside the university, Dutch people speak English fluently so it was not a problem to be understood in any situations and topics. They can easily switch of spoken language.

in my host country, the local language is a little difficult but I would like to learn. in the Netherlands, I experienced more in English communication. For Dutch, since I haven't learnt it formally, it is not improved yet.

Almost all local students can speak English. It is not difficult for new comers who come from other countries to develop active communication with each other.
