Hi @frosay ,
Check out Primalbase in Amsterdam. They also have location in other big cities (BER, LDN, Nyc, …)
Super affordable compared to other places such as coworkings, Spaces, etc. Decent facilities, spacious, quiet, great location. Free coffee, snacks, etc. So basically the best of both worlds (coworking vs. Cafè).
Good luck!

Hi all,
I am moving to Amsterdam in January and looking for advice regarding legal status.
I work for a small French company. They agreed to let me move to Amsterdam as a remote worker starting January. 
However, they have no business entity and no employee in the Netherlands, so we have no idea how to set up the whole thing legally speaking. Should I remain an employee of the French entity, should I charge them as a consultant/contractor?
Of course, I am looking for a solution that is both simple and with minimum taxes 
Thank you for your help!!
Steph
PS: If you can recommend a good accountant that is competent on the topic, I an happy to pay for the service too!
I’m no expert in this area, but I think it’s important for us to know if you’re a European citizen or not. If you are, than I think the easiest thing you can do is to remain employed in France and pay the taxes there. Not sure if you’re going to save money or not this way, but it will definitely be less of a hassle to just let your employer take care of the taxes for you.
Some extra rules might apply if you are not a European citizen, but someone else might want to help with that 
Anyone know a good hairdresser in Amsterdam? Looking for something reasonably to the center!
Hi fellow nomads !
Looking for tax representative offices, logistic solutions and Company incorporation in Netherlands. ?
I will be in Amsterdam coworking and checking these companies out? Honestly I do not want to end up with a hidden fees company…
Cheers from Berlin,
What is internet connection like in Amsterdam? And how much should I budget for?
I’m paying €45/mo for my residential cable internet in Amsterdam. Gives me up to 7 MByte/s down. Setup is quick, you can even pick up a cable modem in one of the stores and get started at home.
It’s fab. No problems with internet in Amsterdam, but the city is hella expensive. Just sayin.
I am relocating to that side end of December. In my line of work I need to be connected almost all the time so have to get internet sorted out as I get there. Are you currently staying there?
I lived in Amsterdam with my Dutch boyfriend for the past 2.5 years. I wasn’t a huge fan of the winters, so we’re now nomading and looking for a more permanent residence in warmer locales
