Do you recommend getting Facebook for all the groups from/for university? I don’t want to get it but I am not sure if it would be a disadvantage not downloading it

I'm Dutch but life in Suriname and I'm almost done with high-school and I'm moving there soon

Me too!! What are u going to study?
Hey! I also have a question about public transport. Can you get any discount as a student? I thought public transport is included in the tuition fee
No you pay from your pocket
Hi! if you don’t mind me asking, how much were you paying for the housing of your first apartment?
Usually in Amsterdam you pay between 1600 - 3000 euro per month for a normal appartment
more than useful atm🤪🤪
It’s funny to me that people wanna move to Amsterdam because I have lived their all my life and I always wanted to move to a other country. Anyways, if anyone has questions about Amsterdam you can ask me :)
How difficult is the house search if I am looking for options in and outside Amsterdam? (for a working individual)
hi, im looking at moving from australia to delft near Amsterdam next year for 6 months on exchange. just wondering what delft is like especially the university of technology there (as I would be attending there)
@@jananijan4422 very hard finding a place to live in Amsterdam, you can try Almere if you don’t mind to do a bit of commuting .
Same here! I got out and moved to Spain haha
Will being unable to speak dutch be a huge disadvantage in general there?
I think that depends on the kind of job you want to do. I've worked retail and as a waitress (both in the center though) and it wasn't a problem. Almost all Dutch people speak English and even if they don't, you can still work around it. If you're looking for a more "serious" job then yes, I think it would be a bit of a problem! But for everyday life it definitely isn't :)
yeah, i like your video.. and keep it up..
Thanks Akib!!
@@Antoniagsnr you'r welcome.
So funny that people actually want to move to Amsterdam. I've lived there all my life it's a beautiful city but the Netherlands is a terrible place to live. People are rude, weather is terrible, everyone is always stressed and in a hurry, its the most crowded country in Europe, everything is crazy expensive. I would advise a weekendtrip and then to get out :p. I moved to Spain, much better ;)
it's really funny I'm from Paris and it sounds exactly the same
do you know anything about law? is it hard?
What do you need to know? I grew up here.
@@Haan_11B hi! can i just ask you a few questions?
@@elenaspano5067 of course!
@@Haan_11B okay. thank you.
so, i’m confused about healthcare. i know it’s private, but other than that, how does it work? do i need to choose some kind of healthcare company and pay a monthly fee? in italy it’s free (you pay for it through taxes though), but is it the same in the netherlands?
i also need to get a job during my studies to cover part of my living expenses. is it hard to find a job if i don’t speak dutch? is that a requirement?
@@elenaspano5067 yeah you choose a company and pay monthly for it. Around 100 euro per month.
I,m moving november.can i job in amsterdam any field?
What?
None of these tips will work for a brown man.
I mean about the 'friend making' part.
What you mean? Enough brown men here in the Netherlands
@@donttakeitpersonal8704 It was just a joke. Ok. Its rarely color and mostly individual.
Kind of unhelpful video
A video about Amsterdam and what is one of the topics? Weed.... how very surprising (yawn)
And it's not legal. It's tolerated. And it's there for the tourists and expats. There are very few Dutch people who smoke it.
And why did the fact Dutch was asked for jobs surprise you? Yes Amsterdam is very accomodating to foreigners but the native language is Dutch. Not any other language, Dutch.
Hi! Thanks for taking time out of your day to watch my video and comment under it! This video is me answering my viewers' questions about my experience in Amsterdam! I can only speak of my own personal experiences and it's always great to hear from a local. I hope you have a good night :)
Maria, you need to chill.
Precies..
