Hey everyone, i'm Hazel aged 29. I come from Singapore and currently travelling back and forth singapore & NL coz my husband is dutch. I'm a nurse, and i know finding a job as a nurse in NL is next to impossible without mastering the language, so am learning now. hehe... I live in Leeuwarden and hoping i'll meet new friends who would love to hang out :)

Ludo ludi

G'day everyone! I arrived in Netherlands 3 weeks ago. I have been pretty busy the past weeks with my new job, so I didn't get a chance to appreciate the city. Any advices (nice place to go, where to do not go... Any climbing wall around, volunteer work) will be the welcome.
I have been travelling the past 4 years, mainly in Australia. I like to meet people, share a coffee and listen stories.
If someone know some good English website to find a sharehouse, it will be very lovely to share it, so far I only found dutch one...

Primadonna

Hi Kreson,

Welcome on board to this site and welcome in the Netherlands.
I it hard that your family is not with you but when you are busy you will notice that time goes fast and before you know you can hug your family again.

Maybe a silly question but what is a naval architect doing?

Kreso

Thanks for warm welcome  :)
Naval architect is involved in designing and/or shipbuilding engineering

HI All,

Im Alan, currently in Ireland and just finished studying photography. Hoping to move over to Amsterdam sometime in the near future. Pretty nervous about the big step of leaving the country on a more permanent basis but excited at the same time as I'm sure you have experienced yourselves! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Primadonna

Hi Tracy,

Welcome on board to this site and welcome in the Netherlands once you landed here.
If you still can manage Afrikaans you don't need to worry about the Dutch language, they are very similar as you might know.

In July half Netherlands has his summer vacation but maybe you can google on "vakantiebaan in Staphorst/ Zwolle", it can help you.

Best of luck and happy searching!

Primadonna

Hi Alan,

Welcome on board to this site.
Emigrating is a huge adventure in all his aspects.
But Ireland is not so far away?

What kind of advise you need?
I can overload you with lots of information but don't know if it is useful to you.

ArnoldR

My name is Arnold
I just came back to Amsterdam after a while :)
is good to be back

regards

Alan88

No its not too far away at all, similar sized cities too. I have quite a few questions, would it be ok to send you a PM to talk further?

PtrMaroun
