Student Spotlight: Daijah Scott in The Netherlands

How do daily routines—like shopping, cooking, or resting—differ from what you’re used to at home?

Daily life in the Netherlands differs. Although many people here speak English, Dutch is the primary language, which means that most everyday information, from bathroom signs to grocery labels, and even the advertisements I encounter online is written in Dutch. As a result, I often rely on Google Translate to navigate daily tasks and ensure I am purchasing the correct items.
