Go visit Zwolle, Kampen and Deventer, get out of the Randstad :) Go to a Wadden eiland, like Terschelling, go bike on the island :)

Thank you for the info! Helpful as we plan and research our move. Waiting on job offer but hopefully within the next year we can make the permanent transition from US. I enjoy your content. 😀

These are all great tips for anyone whom is planning to move to the Netherlands. I agree that a bike is basically a must for Amsterdam or in any of the cities in the Netherlands. Great video!

its also mandatory for the insurance company, all healthcare insurance company's to register you and take you in as a client, what ever your age is, from what ever disease you suffer from

What a relief! Thanks for sharing. Here in the US insurance companies call your medical history "pre-existing conditions" then use that info to deny or up charge you. Sad.

European gems thank you but you yourself are of European descent too you know you could easily pass for a European as well. Indeed get a bicycle as soon as possible and learn to ride it you will love it it's also very healthy. Other than that a great video keep it up👍

Have enough money, and a betaalkaart with a PIN code. And learn Basic Dutch :). And learn how to ride a bike.

Get a bike(bicycle). Get a very good chainlock to lock it around poles etc.. Especially when it is an electrical bike(bicycle) Yes bikes get stolen here. So maybe get a third lock (or/and good insurance). Did I tell you to get an extra lock for your bike? 🤣🤣🤣

@aWanderlustForLife 2 жыл бұрын

Absolutely! Always lock it to something. Yes, bikes get stolen here...but my bike also got stolen in the tiny little college town I lived in that has almost no crime 😂 It can happen anywhere.
