What is the best advice you have received regarding doing business with Americans/Dutch?
The best advice is to be honest and straight to your business partners. They have to use to it at the beginning but then they are realizing what have with you. Americans are always optimistic and we are sometimes conservative, but if you can bring the mix on the table you have the best results.

Any other personal information you would like to share, e.g. hobbies, special interests, family etc…
My wife and I like to explore the USA for vacation and are still not finished with this great adventure. We have a son of 18 years old, who moved back to Holland in January 2013 to Study on HVA in Amsterdam for 4 years. We mostly travel 1x year back to Holland to see family and relatives or they come over to the USA for a nice vacation.
