So, I was thinking of visiting either Sweden, Norway, or the Netherlands if I had the money. Plus, living in Germany which I'll learn in school and Germany borders a lot of fantastic countries! How is the country? How is it being LGBTQ there, I've heard many wonderful things! How is immigration? Sorry to be political.

Also, is it true that many people will switch to English if A) you're an English native or B) just say "I don't speak Dutch"?

except Venlo, which almost feels like a german exclave
