Hi there,
I'm hoping to get advice & feedback... I'm currently in South Africa, seriously considering moving to the Netherlands in a few months, trying out a new lifestyle, etc, but need to do some serious research beforehand.
ok here are a few questions to start:
WORK:
Is there a good demand for work? is it easy enough to get a job? what kind of jobs seem the majority in demand?
Oh and very importantly - I only speak English & Afrikaans (not Dutch)... is this a big issue with regards to getting a job?
Is there a decent sized community that speak English over there?
RENT:
What is the average rent cost per month for a small 1 bedroom / studio?
Is it easy to find a place?
(as I'd need to find a place in advance before I fly over there so that I'm all set up etc as I know no-one at all in the Netherlands)
If there is any other advice anyone else can offer - please do.
thanks!!!
really appreciate it!
