Last night a police officer came to our house. She was informing us of the recent thefts in the neighbourhood, and advised us what to do in terms of securing the house, looking after the neighbours and raising the alarm if any suspicious person is seen. It's quite good that the police here are quite proactive and really make an attempt to visit everyone in the neighbourhood. What is also facinating about living here is that English is well spoken by everyone including this police officer. Holland is probably the only country in Europe outside the British Isles where almost the entire population can speak English very well. You would not find that in France, Spain, Italy or Germany.
