From finding accommodation to making new friends, moving to a new city can be challenging.
You’ll navigate things like homesickness, getting all the admin sorted out, perhaps finding a job - and you probably won’t know many people at first.
Only other expats understand these struggles - and that’s why we made this video!
We’re bringing you the voices of our expat community in Amsterdam. They share authentic advice to help make the first months in Amsterdam easier for YOU.
You’ll learn the answers to questions like: why do expats like living in Amsterdam - and what’s not so great? How is the work-life balance? Is it a safe city? Plus, you’ll get tips on the housing market, how to build a social life, and much more!
