    Dutchie born in Joburg, we moved back in 76, thank God. Even my stubborn aunt moved back 2 years ago, too dangerous and hard to find a job in SA. She's 64 and she is having the time of her life.

    For my south african niece I tried to arrange a job as a nurse, and the Dutch
    hospital was very interested even if she already was around 55. Think about that if you are a careworker and you want to leave South Africa.

    I agree with planning and making sure you know just how big the move is etc but, it also depends, for example, on the size of your family. A single person might not need as much time as a couple with three children.

    For this lady New Zealand would be a much better option , plenty of South Africans here , she can go for safe runs for miles , plenty of mountains , better climate than Nederland.
    I am from the Netherlands living 41 years in News Zealand and loving it.

    You cant compare the two countries surely. Did you live in a gated estate in SA?
    My sister was mugged four times in a year in Jo'burg.

    Imagine having the initiative to emigrate to the Netherlands, but to google for athletic clubs.
    There are at least 3, Hellas, Phoenix and U-Track.

      Several. If you take a good look you will find sport, fitness, pilates, yoga. All over the country, even in little villages.

    Utrecht, a good choice. There is a conservatory, so there must be musicians. And Utrecht is certainly not a smaller Amsterdam, never say that again please. Utrecht is way older, a 1000 years or so.

    20 minutes on the bike is, of course, the REAL measurement

    Welkom Kari. Het is een groot voordeel dat u Afrikaans / Afrikaners (?) spreekt. We begrijpen niet elk woord, maar wel het grootste deel. Ik zag Charlize Theron op TV toen ze Afrikaners sprak, en we konden bijna alles begrijpen. Ook Koos Kombuis vers "onder in my whiskeyglas" is goed te begrijpen.

    People, unless it’s really, really urgent DO NOT MOVE To The Netherlands. There is a HUGE housing problem. People live with their parents up to their 30th year, and overbidding on houses over € 50.000 are common. Social housing, waiting lists are over 10 years. And yes, there is still green meadows, cause it’s a law to keep the area between the 5 big cities green and you can’t only keep on building. Do reconsider your plans, and keep in mind 40% is below sea level😉

    Typical .. oh wel , rifraf van elders hoeven geen inburgerings curses te doen, maar ja zo gaat het tegenwoordig. Je had een hoofd-doekje op moeten doen.
