I'm moving to Antwerp at the end of the month for work reasons. I am trying to find out as much information as I can but it is so overwhelming! Can anyone give me any tips or advice of their experience of Belgium or Antwerp in general? Thanks.

What sort of info are you looking for? I moved here almost 2yrs ago, I'm happy to give input, but need a little more to go on...

Hi Melby,

Well accommodation is something that I want a bit more info on. I have seen previous forum posts on it, but how easy is it to find an apartment? What are the safest areas to rent from etc? I don't want to stay in b&b's for too long.
