Thanks

Yeah we could.Try to learn as much as u can in ur land it will help u a lot.We will live in Noordpolderbuurt-Laak..

Hi Yasmin,

Did you try looking for jobs with international organizations? The Hague has many of them. That is why there are so many expats here. And I would assume that if there is any employer that is okay with a potential employee not knowing Dutch, it would be one of those. I'm at the ICTY (UN Yugoslavian Tribunal) and you only need to know English to work here. Take my advice with a grain of salt though because I just moved here a month ago so my knowledge is limited.

And by the way, let me know if you would like to meet up for coffee/dinner. My name is Sarah and I am Egyptian-American. I was born and raised in the U.S. but my family is Egyptian and all my relatives live in Egypt. It would be nice to meet other Egyptians

I still think that is is hard to find job if u speak only English because here are a lot of people that except English are speaking Dutch or other languages.I can say I speak Serbian,English,Greek Dutch and still looking for a job and I am not picky at all But also I must add that I didnt try hard and I am here not even 2 months

Hi Sara,

Well I've just arrived here 2 weeks ago so it has been pretty much hectic to know where to start searching and so on but thanks alot for the advice, It's very helpful indeed! And yes it would be very nice to meet up of course, what about giving me your email to find you on Facebook or something so we can better communicate and plan a meeting? Here is my email if you wish to add me on facebook [email protected] ( Yasmin Sameh Kamal)

Looking forward to hearing from you

Regards,
Yasmin

Dear Yasmin
