Hi guys,
After the Netherlands, the Bay Area, Colorado and being on the van life for 8 months, I am now in Sedona, AZ with a few other digital nomads. We are sharing a home here and are wondering if there are more like minded people in the area.
We do a bunch of hikes and campouts in the northern of Arizona. If you would like to connect with us, please do so :)

What are the most comfortable and affordable coworking places in Amsterdam?
I don’t like noisy cafes and high prices of Spaces.
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…

The best area is Nimman, but it's also the most expensive. You can stay in the old city that's very nice but that gets noisy during the weekend for the night markets.
