Hey everyone,

I'm new to this forum just wandering if there are any Australian's who have recently moved over to Amsterdam? I am looking at moving over next year and getting a one year working visa. Is it hard to find a place to live? Find work? Any good job agencies I should look into that can help me find work over there? I don't speak Dutch, only English.

Advice would be wonderful
Cheers,

Natalie.

Hallo Nathalie,

Welcome in the Netherlands and welcome on board to this site.
I hope that you get some Australian contacts before you settle down.

Maybe you can give us some more information so we can help you better.
In what area you are looking for a house, what kind of a job you are looking for???

I advise you to look at the housing section and jobssection as well.
It can help you.
