In this country ‘It doesn’t matter if you’re black or white – Michael Jackson’. We live in most solidarity amongst all ethnicities. It doesn’t matter who you are, or where you came from. We open our arms to all people. We are the first country in the world that legalized gay marriages. Doesn’t that say enough?
but how do you get there?
In the Netherlands we have all types of public transportation. For instants, ever heard of a tram? These are metro/train type of things that ride on the same road as cars do. And they’re pretty huge. All you need to get to one bus to another, is an OV chipkaart. Which stand for public transportation chipcard. You can find one at the VVV points and put balance on it at every train station or any other OV points.

This way you’ll always have enough balance on your card. Don’t want to an OV chipcard? The NS app allows you to buy train tickets online. You can buy your bus or tram ticket on the spot. And metro tickets are sold at the metro stations.
