Speaking Dutch in Aruba

Hi everyone,

It is widely agreed that speaking Dutch is essential for a successful integration in Aruba. Do you agree? Share your experience!

Do you speak Dutch? If so, where did you learn this language? Where can one attend a language course in Aruba?

If not, how do you cope with daily activities? Is it easy to communicate in a different language with Arubans?

Thank you for sharing your experience.
