Hello,
I am am Italian. I am a webdesigner and I moved to the Netherlands. I created a website on the city of Amsterdam and we provide services to all the people who want to come and live in Amsterdam.
Our common experience is that most friends of ours spent something like 3000/4000 euro at least in the first month, in order to get settled. So we started this website with the goal to assist people willing to come and live in Amsterdam for a cheap price.

Hi all!
I'm not exactly a newbie expat as I've been living in the Netherlands for almost two years now, but I have only just found this site. I'm English, by the way, and live with my Dutch boyfriend in Hilversum. I'm a work from home fibre artist, struggling with the Dutch language. Well to say I struggle isn't completely true....yes, I do struggle with it, that part is true, but the reality is I rarely need to speak it anyway.
Pleased to have found this site, and look forward to chatting with you all
