    Tbh even if you speak Dutch, they’ll just reply English. That’s the weird Amsterdam behavior

      This happens in a lot of countries. For me I noticed it particularly with young people in Germany, and pretty much anyone in Norway.

      Can make it slightly frustrating when actively trying to learn the language by speaking with people 😅

      I think that’s kinda common in a lot of countries. If you look like you aren’t from there then they will speak in English.
