I'm Dutch
Pro's:
1) Learning languages. Sounds weird, but if you grow up in a small country like the Netherlands you simply do as early as being a child. Also I grew up in the very south, so basically German is second nature with some French thrown in. It proved to be very helpful in both my professional career as in my personal life.
2) Well organized. Obviously we dutch like to complain, but just a hop across the border will show how Dutch infrastructure seems more organized in comparison. Including Cycling infrastructure.
3) Being direct and pragmatic. It's culture in this case. Dutch people might come across as being rude, but they tend not to keep you guessing in their intend.
Contra:
1) The Netherlands has a high population density. Eventhough we have no 1 million cities, we also have no real nature areas of significant size. It's impossible to let's say hike for a few hours with no civilization in sight.
2) As I said, we can be rude. So everyone has an opinion about anything. Can become very tiresome.
3) Taxation is borderline. You pay a LOT of taxes. Prepare to spend 1/2 your working life on funding the government and more.
