I think this is what love is…
I have found the one and his name is Amsterdam. This place is stunning. Every single thing about this city is perfection. The people here are so nice. The language is horrible and so confusing but I have 10 days to learn! The house were staying in is absoultely Lovely with an incredibly soft bed. Our host Toni is absolutely hilarious! You can refer to him as Rihanna.
Of course we went comparing our worlds again and man do I need to move here. They work 40 hour salary weeks. They get 28 days off of work. 7 day bank holidays off. And you can still ask off for certain events. Please sign me up. The cost of living here is about 500-600 an apartment (outside of downtown Amsterdam) and they are so spacious. He said people here live comfortably and spend tons of time with their kids. Oh and you only work 4 days a week. So of course I asked how do I move here and his answer was find a company here that will hire you or get a skill/degree that can be useful here. He said design was a good one. If someone from a company hires you over here you are considered an expert and you get 30% tax deduction, free flight and moving payments and any other benefits the company wants to give you. PLEASE SOMEONE HIRE ME. lol
I can’t wait for the next 9 days because already day 1 was incredible. So, if you need me, don’t because I’ll be engulfed into the culture of Amsterdam and enjoying every second.
