Most people go to the Netherlands to earn money, so the most important factor to consider is payment in the Netherlands.

If you're going to be in the Netherlands for more than a month, you have one immediate priority: buying a bike. Not only will it allow you to forget the fatigue of the day's work, see more and more of the country, make friends and, ultimately, get physically stronger.

In the Dutch business world, the action never stops - one ship arrives with goods or raw materials, the next with ambitious youngsters or experienced business wolves. International projects and conferences are constantly taking place in a small area of the country, bringing people from all over the world to Holland every day. "The dress code is not determined by the place, but by the host", says the writer Russell Smith, and the unassuming Dutch are a living example of this. Some are driven by business, others by tourist curiosity, but it's worthwhile for anyone who has set foot on Dutch soil, or is about to set foot on it, to know the subtleties of how the locals communicate.
