Because I am from Belgium I sort of spoke the local language, so that wasn't any problem. Anyway, I spoke more English than Dutch because all my courses were in English and all my friends spoke English. Nice language experience.

As everyone in the Netherlands seems to speak English fluently and almost perfectly, communication is not a problem at all! Dutch could be learned at university and has actually improved quite significantly since the beginning.
